The cave virus, though related to SARS CoV 2, shows no indication of being either an ancestor or "raw material". The mystery that remains is how small carnivores likely raised in Hubei were exposed to a coronavirus of bats 1000 km away. trueinfections.com/080922.html

Revealed: Seven year coronavirus trail from mine deaths to a Wuhan lab In the monsoon season of August 2012 a small team of scientists travelled to southwest China to investigate a new and mysteriously lethal illness. After driving through terraced tea plantations, they ...

The recency and geographical origins of the bat viruses ancestral to SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 The emergence of SARS-CoV in 2002 and SARS-CoV-2 in 2019 led to increased sampling of sarbecoviruses circulating in horseshoe bats. Employing phylogen…

How people and/or farmed animals were exposed to an insectivorous bat coronavirus is the central question and it's not being asked.

Were raccoon dogs or some other animal at the Wuhan market the spark that set off a worldwide conflagration? It first has to be asked is how were any of the livestock exposed to a coronavirus laden bat from the south of China? Raccoon dogs were likely raised near Wuhan. #SARSCoV2 #OriginOfCoViD

After 4 years, I finally wrote a little update on the #OriginOfCovid. My readers deserved to know why, after initially suspecting a lab leak, I changed my mind and turned to the dark side. 😉

Serological evidence of sarbecovirus exposure along Sunda pangolin trafficking pathways - BMC Biology Background Early in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Sunda pangolins (Manis javanica) involved in the illegal wildlife trade in mainland China were identified as hosts of severe acute...

"While we were unable to detect RNA, we found serological evidence for previous SARSr-CoV infection in a #pangolin from Java and putatively seropositive individuals from Java, Borneo and Singapore/Sumatra."

Wow, #Bluesky is so different! The NYT piece on the #OriginOfCovid caused a little bit of discussion, but it didn't last long. Everybody is so relaxed here! Meanwhile on X:

In my Twitter times I closely followed the #OriginOfCovid discussions. I interacted a lot with Alina, who now writes this piece for the NYT (TBH most of it is old facts with fancy graphics on top of it). I still believe the wildlife route is the most likely origin, although lab leak remains possible
