The World Health Organization is reviving its stalled investigation into the origins of the Covid-19 virus as agency officials warn that time is running out to determine how the pandemic that has killed more than 4.7 million people world-wide began. This was reported byThe Wall Street Journal.
A new team of about 20 scientists including specialists in laboratory safety and biosecurity and geneticists and animal-disease experts versed in how viruses spill over from nature is being assembled with a mandate to hunt for new evidence in China and elsewhere.
Scientists want to find out how the pandemic began, which claimed the lives of more than 4.7 million people around the world.
WHO experts have already conducted a similar study and even visited the Chinese city of Wuhan, where the coronavirus epidemic came from. The investigation was resumed due to the fact that there was not enough to answer the question about the origin of the coronavirus.
