Swabs taken from various surfaces at a seafood and live animal market in Wuhan, China, that were positive for the coronavirus also have evidence of DNA from raccoon dogsRaccoon dogs have previously been found to be susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 and to be capable of spreading itThe long-running debate over the origins of covid-19 took another turn this week, after a French scientist spotted that genetic sequences put on a database by Chinese researchers suggest that the coronavirus responsible might...
Within a few days, the sequences were removed by the same researchers – although some other scientists managed to download them beforehand and are investigating further. “It is really critical that any and all data that relates to how this pandemic began be made available immediately,”“There are several hypotheses that need to be examined, including how the virus entered the human population, either from a bat, through an intermediate host or through a breach in biosecurity from a lab. And we don’t have a definitive answer.
SARS-CoV-2’s original host is thought to be bats, as they carry many coronaviruses, although they haven’t yet been found with SARS-CoV-2. The ancestor of this virus may have jumped from bats to an intermediate host sold at the market, and then to people.Get the most essential health and fitness news in your inbox every Saturday.
How dare you bring this slander to raccoon dogs.
Wir wissen alle das es in china in einem labor gezüchtez wurde. Also was soll der mist.
Lies. Covid has a patent. Can't have a patent if a virus is naturally occurring
ScienceNews must be making good money to be recycling this article on a daily basis. Who is paying, NIH? The Covid-19 virus indeed originated from an animal. An animal that worked 9am-5pm in the Wuhan lab. Who are you trying to fool?
Stop enslaving animals for food! 🤬 goVegan eatingmeatcausespandemics
Lol
Can't see the forest from the trees.
this still does not change the fact that so called wet markets are an abomination and if allowed to continue are a great place to start the next zoonotic nor the lack of control on biosecurity ☣️ at labs nor the W H O failing to act in time What has changed what learnt ?
More China propaganda
Ah, red herrings
Some ADHD meds are methyl donors. 'SARS-CoV-2 infection likely leads to increased methyl-group requirements. We propose these might explain the varied symptoms of long-COVID.'
How do we know that humans didn’t pass the virus on to raccoon dogs? After all Covid as we know it so far it has actually been humans passing the virus on to our pets, tigers & even minks . So why not raccoon dogs too?
Looks so cute!
💩
'.... when your paycheck depends on it.'
There is no battle - mis-information fertilized by agendas is not a battle. Mis-use of infectious diseases for political agendas is old hat.
Ask the Ex-CDC director where it came from or are we not listening to experts anymore?
I think I started when BorisJohnson mated with DonaldTrump
In Japan, there are statues of Raccoon dogs, known as Tanuki, with exaggerated testicles,and are placed not only at temples, but also outside shops. Parts of the statues are rubbed, for good luck. Guess which parts.
The Chinese were lying to us on day one but now they are telling the truth?
😂🤣
People aren’t going to believe scientific analysis. They have already convinced themselves it was a lab leak no matter what.
There is no long running debate. Ironically, I hear state propaganda pays well.
Really....
🤦♀️
Is this the science section for the national inquirer ?!?
Trying so hard to make it anything but the most obvious and most likely origin 🙄
Is there any paper behind these vague claims. No? What a surprise...
It didn't, move along to something else.
'New Scientist'? Seems like a paid pharmaceutical shill. It must likely came from a lab.
New Scientist has been compromised
Competing with Nature mag ?
No it doesn’t, this information is scientifically lacking & seems to be not lab leak propaganda.
Maybe, or in a laboratory, or maybe still from an animal, or from a laboratory...It sways back and forth
Rubbish! You need to speak to Ayjchan.
Or maybe they experimented on racoons which turned into dogs lmao never seen a racoon dog before
Fruckoff!
It was MADE
Side note: I had no idea there was a raccoon dog. 🤔 AudacityofGoats
Lol. Lies. It was made in a Lan and has a patent number. You can't oatent a naturally occurring thing. So...you are paid liars and if you don't lie, you don't get your funding!
Codswallop!
there is no actually evidence, just claims from a buy who's obviously lying !
Wow, we finally know the truth. I also think that a gang of raccoon dogs was also responsible for blowing up the Russian pipeline. By the way, why do you call your magazine New Scientist? Did your writers just graduate with a degree in “The Science” from community colleges?
But, that doesn't look like the bat they were covering with earlier. Now, they have a new source to cover what really happened?
we all know it started in the USA and it was the animal that they use to cultivate 'chicken' products lol.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣we believe yer
Science use to be useful. Now nobody even knows what science is anymore. I’m thinking it becoming more of a faith based religion, or cult thing.
It's the lab. 🧪
Dog racism right there!
No, it didn't
So far I'm doubting it but I'm not denying it
So you believe Chinese propaganda?
This is disgraceful.
Triple Bollox.
Why are we still playing that it was not stolen from us by China spies?
Dude - it’s man made - let’s stop this drama - there are three different versions - how many raccoon dogs you need for that story - but that’s paid for journalism these days.

You have just revealed that you are a joke publication and can't even analyze a study.
I swear, I just learned about racoon dogs in Japan yesterday.....now this comes out?
Just a stab in the dark here, but maaaybe....
And you wonder why we don’t trust the science
State paid propaganda
Never mind the corona virus laboratory 🦠💉🧪🔬 up the street right? 🩸 The Wuhan Institute of Virology, AKA the largest virus bank in Asia.
You can have my raccoon dog when you pry him from my dead, cold hands. Or you could buy him from me. Idc
😂
Or in a lab in Wuhan.
If you understand covid was a natural virus that it was harvested and taken into a lab and allowed gain of function so that it could be airborne. You’ll understand why this is hogwash. Sure it has natural genomics sequences in it. It has nothing to do with gain of function
So why has it taken 3 years to come up with this?
Isn't that the Nord Stream bomber? 🤡
And they were pets of Peter Pan
Seriously doubt it. We already have seen SARS-CoV-2 carried by dogs, deer, bear, tigers, Etc. It came from a lab and spread like wildfire as designed.
😂😂😂 No.
😂 The scientz
What a load of tripe
Given that the “scientists” involved in this “study” were the same ones that conspired to quash the lab leak hypothesis, I’m going to place this one in the bullshit pile.
Lol the raccoon dogs didn't start getting covid until months after humans
Lol
100% propaganda.
Forst bats No cute racoon dogs What is next?!
those aren't real that's clearly a picture made by chatGPT
Why even publish this?
When did racoon dogs start working in virology labs?
Spoiler alert it's from a Chinese lab
Now you’re a communist propaganda site?
We all know it came from gain of function experiments in a Wuhan lab. Involving American pharma.
BULLSHIT! COVID is a stain of influenza disguised by reengineered test labeled COVID Test. The truth is coming out quicker than you propagandist can hide it.
No no! Man-bear-pig is much more plausible
spelled 'Gain Of Function' wrong...
And New Scientist say something stupid in 3..2..1...
The tanukis betrayed us?
Gas on your fire AhlenPA
🤥
This is a slightly racist way of saying Chinese Laboratory.
You’re just embarrassing yourselves now…
The overwhelming evidence points to a zoonotic origin but nobody believes this. Can new scientist please explain? Is it propaganda or brain worms?
But I couldn't find a way So I'll settle for one day To believe in you Tell me, tell me tell me lies Tell me lies Tell me sweet little lies (Tell me lies, tell me, tell me lies) Oh, no, no you can't disguise (You can't disguise, no you can't disguise) Tell me lies
Are your sure it wasn’t crossed over from leprechauns?
“Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.” – Albert Einstein
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAA. Sure it did. Trust the science.
🤦🏻♂️
Please no.
New Scientist information created by whom ? I’m blocking your BS.,! Who’s going to repay tax payers for Covid? George Soros group the folks who go around making money off others misery! They ruined the Pound back in 1992 in order to open up China! Thinking 🤔 yet
Your spreading lies again folks! George Soros group must be held accountable for their Biological Weapons laboratory ! Thinking 🤔 yet?
This is exactly how the scripted news looks like.. no1's gonna blv tht... China should held responsible for the outbreak of Coronavirus. realDonaldTrump was right.. This is Wuhan virus
Do you stay awake at night thinking this shit up ?
Try to maintain some credibility or change your name.
AskDrShashank If it came from a raccoon dog, other raccoon dogs will be carriers and this will be easy to identify and confirm.
Are you sure the origin is not from this?
CussedWench Bigfoot would be more believable.
Smokescreen, the virus had a DNA motif used in genetic engineering (furin site). It was manipulated in a lab
'May' is not conclusive.
Spillover has always and will always happen as long as there are wet markets and unsanitary handling of animals. What happened to the Pangolin and the Bat? Maybe a snake?
New Scientist... Are not concerned the lack of credibility you have left?
What a load of rubbish
Clowns 🤡
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Is this supposed to be satire, or is this another 'science' page that goes against science?
Is this satire? No one believes this nonsense
'nEw sCiEnTiSt' This is laugh out loud ridiculous
Don't care if ignorant people debate origins. It will satisfy no one. Evidence exists that can lead to better future outcomes. I support a full and transparent investigation wherever it leads, with the goal to help and defend, not to shame or attack.
Suuuuurrrrreeeeee
Aaaaand unfollowed.
Raccoon city
Really ? We believe you
Lol, changing the narrative.
😂😂😂 if you call Chinese lab -a raccoon- then Yes
NOT buying it.
Anything else but gain of function & lab leak theory... I think you need to review Occam's Razor instead of covering up for Fauci. That guy is toast/done.
First it was a bat, now a raccoon, what's next? From an escaped elephant from a zoo? From a flea? From a bed bug? A Panda Bear makes sense since it is a China Flu.😂😅🤣
Such obvious BS and yet you print it Who holds your strings?
Regarding this topic. Seriously doubt it.
Or a lab in Wuhan.
Me thinks it started from bafoons
😓
😆😆😆😆😆
Thats fun!
TheBabylonBee looks like you have some competition.
There are Racoon Dogs!?!? Awesome 🤓😀
oh my god why is there such a thing as a raccoon dog
Just stop.
DanRiehl
Wtf is a racoon dog?!
Yeah right. Took them 3 years to figure this out. Just gaslighting
💩
Weird! what level clearance did it have at the wuhan virology lab of cornaviruses?
Oh ffs, If you’re going to play this silly shit, I can’t be following you. ☮️
Lol
🤷🏻♂️
Was the raccoon dog cooking bat soup on a gas stove too. The gig is up man, most know this is BS!🤣
Cult poison. 😎
*facepalm*
See this is why no one takes “experts” seriously anymore 😂
DanRiehl Yeah... No.
And then again, it may have not.
Please don’t be racist and call Chinese people raccoon dogs. We all know CoVID came from a Chinese lab.
MAY have...next week it will be..?
Hahaha
Did one of these eat a pangolin after it was raped by a bat with bronchitis?
Good joke! 😜
🤣🤣🤣
Here we go again. Follow the science. 3 years late. Let's just say what we all already know.
I am ashamed of you . Get some real data, real analysis, peer review, then publish headlines like this. Stop trying to divert people from finding out the true source.
A bat bit the raccoon dog?
China has still only just industrialised - hence the transfer from rural - industrial society and the cross spreading of viruses between species and the concentration of hairless monkeys in a semi rural economy still
COVID wasn’t an accident; it was on purpose, planned decades ago, to spread virus around 2020 (hence why Bill Gates spent yrs in Africa working on vaccines), due to unsustainable population-levels, due to technology BG created; knowing computers/internet increased human lifespan:
Is it a newscientist or neoscientist? Don't discredit science, please.
wtf is a raccoon dog
By the looks of it i think that raccoon disagrees.
fakenews
Yes the Wuhan Lab of corona virus research, where they were genetically messing with corona viruses, had nothing to do with it. A racoon dog ate a bat on a full moon or something. Much more likely 🙄
Stop.
Now we know the new scientist is fake, and just a political tool.
Look, it's a bird. It's a plane. It's Superman! Nice diversionary tactics.
Let's see. 3+years and no vector. Less than 1 month after US agencies say it was a lab leak, and lo and behold an animal vector appears. They think we are really stupid. More likely the genetic material was connected in the WIV.
LIES! LIES! LIES!!!!!!! 👊
Is this Fauci’s dog?
China funded science?
You mean the Raccoon Dog, Anthony Fauci? Come on, this is a Science Magazine, right?!
Oh shut up it was a lab in China 🇨🇳 wuhan.
Another attempt to defect cause of covid!
'genetic sequences put on a database by Chinese researchers' - this says it all, might as well read 'the CCP told us it's racoons'
The Chinese will make up any shit they need to to cover their tracks. The real focus should -what still going on at that lab with more dangerous viruses. This doesn’t explain how a coronavirus suddenly became airborne the thing you would want to do making a biological weapon.
BS
Spin us another one. We haven't had quite enough excuse making just yet.
🤦🏻♂️
I'm pretty sure it was Winnie the Pooh.
New lengths be going. I only shifted it. Don't be goin down rabbit holes 🙄
🤔
Does fauci run this page too?
Oh noooo 😰
Has Japan reported transmission from Tanuki to human at the beginning or during COVID?The racoons dogs of Japan are living in close contact with humans,you would think if they transmitted the virus health authorities there would have seen a rise in infections where they were
🧐
Or a fucking Chinese lab...
That thing does look delicious
It was made in a lab. That's been obvious to anyone with experience in treating respiratory viruses for a very long time
Bullshit
A Chinese breed that is basically a big rat dog. they re on the shoot to kill at sight in Norway. Invasive creatures.
Raccoon-what?!
