Sick animals suggest COVID pandemic started in Wuhan market A preliminary analysis takes a closer look at genomic data collected at the market.

Evidence in the "lab leak vs. spillover" covid debate always favored spillover, more so the more we learn. Two new pieces of information support spillover: Sick animals in the Wuhan market & no genetic similarities to Wuhan lab strains www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Thrilled to share our work on the influence of wild boar density on the spread of African swine fever #ASF in northern Italy (Jan 2022 - Sep 2023).
Our model reproduced observed ASF dynamics and showed that wild boar density shaped the second ASF wave only.
