The Harvard study, published on the preprint website medRxiv.org on Tuesday and which has still to be peer-reviewed, took three of the SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences collected in Beijing last month and compared them to 7,643 samples worldwide. They were also similar to a small number of infections seen in China in March, suggesting the strain could have appeared first in China and then returned to the country three months later, the authors said.

The outbreak traced to Beijing’s huge Xinfadi wholesale market on June 11 had infected 329 people by the end of Wednesday.

i don't trust harvard professors anymore. wait for peer review results, btw, the title should add a 'maybe' according to the main body of the article.

Re-exported to China from South or Southeast Asia. The virus originally originated from China. China allowed it to spread all over the world. While progressing from 1 geographic location 2 other during these months, the virus mutated. Chinavirus sent back to China Circle complete

Quick summary. Seems a bit clickbait-y

Only fabrication Chinesevirus scientists said it's from Western

good to see this one is not based on satellite photos

So a Harvard study (American) did a study in Beijing (China) and made a “could of happened conclusion“ and threw it out there for debate....and run with this story....spare me and everyone this bullshit journalism

How much was paid for this lie?

WOW. At least it was not Italy!

wasn't it reported to be a European strain earlier irregardless of origin the important message is still responsible border controls, mask wearing, testing and the fact that China is the only country that can now immediately enforce targeted lockdowns for better or worse.

Nobody care the original. All is China faults.

CHYNA

fake news x virus=china

Is that Harvard using a baidu result to write a study report?

You don't care about 2.7M infected people in the US？

Who cares?

Wait are we really trying to say CHINA is the victim now? Let's not forget where it originally originated: CHINA!
