by Could have Covid-19 originated outside of China?Variant A is the “original human virus genome” and is closest to the “root of the outbreak”, researchers believe. It was found in Wuhan and is most similar to the type of virus found in bats. COVID-19 is believed to have originated in horseshoe bats and transferred to humans via an intermediary animal such as a pangolin. The epicentre is thought to be a Wuhan seafood market. Surprisingly however, researchers found the A variant was not Wuhan’s dominant virus type. Instead, mutated versions of A were found in Americans that lived in Wuhan and A-type viruses were also found in patients in Australia and the US.
