New study cites Wuhan raccoon dogs as possible origin of COVID-19

A new analysis of genetic information conducted by an international group of researchers has found evidence to suggest that COVID-19 originated from infected animals sold at a market in Wuhan, China.

As first reported by The Atlantic, French evolutionary biologist Florence Débarre recently uncovered genetic data from the global virology database GISAID. The data had been submitted by Chinese researchers who collected the genetic sequences from the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, which has been scrutinized as being the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the name, thousands mammals were found to have been sold at the market, where they were kept in cramped and unhygienic spaces.

The genetic data suggested that raccoon dogs being sold at the market could have been carrying and shedding the SARS-CoV-2 virus at the time. The analysis, which is not conclusive, is being led by researchers Kristian Andersen, Edward Holmes and Michael Worobey.

So now we know where they got the virus which they took to the lab and modified to make it more deadly which later was released.

These pathological liars cannot stop lying.

The Wuhan Virus began is a Wuhan lab with the help and support of Globalists from America and around the world.

As first reported by The Atlantic, French evolutionary biologist...

Would it be a "genetic" fallacy to suspect its BS because it was first reported by the Atlantic?

With a name like “The Hill” it can’t be true.

First they came for the bats. Next they came for the dogs. I’d say the cats should be scared but seeing as it is China, I am sure the cats already know to hide.

Dogs wouldn’t harm us. After all, they are our best friends.

and this could just as easily mean that Raccoon Dogs were infected by Humans at the Market.

Good chance one was a lab animal at the research place .
I said FROM THE BEGINNING, it was likely a lowly lab worker sold an animal from the lab at the market to make a couple of yuan and that’s how this started.
The labs crappy lax security probably allowed this to happen
