SARS-CoV-2 is not a bioweapon

Thursday, April 23, 2020 at 6:49PM

Coronavirus science simplified: number 5. This article in Nature Medicine used genetic analysis to test the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 was generated in a lab as a bioweapon. Spoiler alert: it wasn't. Clear hallmarks of natural evolution and none of the features of a designed virus. Read the original paper, or see the illustrated abstract by Tenmai.
