The team of World Health Organization is investigating in China about the origins of Covid-19 pandemic. As per various reports, the scientists have found some "important clues" about the outbreak of virus from Chinia's Wuhan seafood market.
A New York based Zoologist, Peter Daszak who is assisting World Health Organization in the investigation said that perhaps the main findings would be released before his departure on Feb 10. He said, fourteen member group worked with experts in China and visited hot spots in central city of Wuhan to find some "real clues about what happened."
Investigations are underway to unearth how the pandemic spread and Daszak said that there will be a turning point in mitigating the pandemic. "It's the beginning of hopefully a really deep understanding of what happened so we can stop the next one," he was quoted by NDTV. "That's what this is all about -- trying to understand why these things emerge so we don't continually have global economic crashes and horrific mortality while we wait for vaccines. It's just not a tenable future."
Covid-19 has crossed 100 million mark in the globe with latest figure at 1/05.7 million cases while 2.3 million people have lost their lives. Daszak and many other scientists had refuted the speculations about the virus spreading out of any lab from Wuhan where tests are underway related to bat-borne diseases.
Daszak said, "We really have to cover the whole gamut of key lines of investigation."
"To be fair to our hosts here in China, they've been doing the same for the last few months. They've been working behind the scenes, digging up the information, looking at it and getting it ready," he added.
Daszak declined to elaborate on the "important
clues" found about the market's role in the spread of the pandemic. He
said, "Right now, we're trying to tease everything together."
