The Atlantic presents the strongest evidence yet that COVID-19 came from a wild animal

We’re not quite sure what The Atlantic is trying to do here, or if China paid them to run this story. Just as the right-wing conspiracy that the coronavirus escaped from a lab in Wuhan proved to be not a conspiracy, The Atlantic is telling us that the coronavirus came not from a bat but a raccoon dog.

This week, an international team of virologists, genomicists, and evolutionary biologists may have finally found crucial data to help fill that knowledge gap. A new analysis of genetic sequences collected from the market shows that raccoon dogs being illegally sold at the venue could have been carrying and possibly shedding the virus at the end of 2019. It’s some of the strongest support yet, experts told me, that the pandemic began when SARS-CoV-2 hopped from animals into humans, rather than in an accident among scientists experimenting with viruses.

“This really strengthens the case for a natural origin,” says Seema Lakdawala, a virologist at Emory University who wasn’t involved in the research. Angela Rasmussen, a virologist involved in the research, told me, “This is a really strong indication that animals at the market were infected. There’s really no other explanation that makes any sense.”

Yes, there is.

Just because someone does a study doesn’t mean you have to write an article about it. “We’re just putting it out there.”

Raccoon dogs.
