really was the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a pair of new studies in the journal Science published Tuesday that claimed to have tipped the balance in the debate about the virus' origins.

The second examined genomic data from the earliest cases to study the virus' early evolution, concluding it was unlikely the coronavirus circulated widely in humans prior to November 2019. But the findings moved him"to the point where now I also think it's just not plausible that this virus was introduced any other way than through the wildlife trade at the Wuhan market", he told reporters on a call.

The first study's team used mapping tools to determine the location of most of the first 174 cases identified by the World Health Organization, finding 155 of them were in Wuhan. The study authors also tied positive samples from patients in early 2020 to the western portion of the market, which sold live or freshly butchered animals in late 2019.

But while A was closer to the virus found in bats, suggesting the coronavirus in humans came from this source and that A gave rise to B, it was B that was found to be far more present around the market.

What is the point keep finding the source? To blame someone or else? Important is how to stop the spread, as sick peoples are everywhere, in planes, public transports, workplaces, schools, everywhere one is near you.

Who sponsored these 'findings'?

Covid is rampaging and now we have MonkeyPox , another zoonotic disease. Wet Markets where animals dead and love are sold are known to be hotbeds of zoonotic dieseases. Better to get to the bottom of this and not cover up .
