Three years in, “we are no closer to finding the origins of Covid.” Dr. Alice C. Hughes argues it’s time to stop obsessing over ‘animal zero’ and focus on understanding how viruses spill over into human populations.
A Harvard report from June 2020 aimed to show how US intelligence had spotted the virus spreading in China in November 2019 even before China did, but accidentally proved there was no signal for an outbreak at that time.
A whistleblowing scientist, a former Vice President of EcoHealth Alliance, says gain-of-function research was key to creating SARS-CoV-2
Boston University unexpectedly found itself at the centre of controversy this week when its researchers published a paper on their creation of a Covid mutant that kills 80% of mice. How worried should we be?
If SARS-CoV-2 didn't leak from a lab doing research funded by the US Government, why have officials gone to such lengths to frustrate investigations into the possibility and conceal evidence that would exonerate them?
Being sceptical is one thing. Being just plain wrong is another. And those who deny the existence of viruses and the tenets of germ theory are wrong. Here's why.
In a strange twist in the investigation into the origins of the virus, it has been discovered that a key genetic sequence in the virus was patented by Moderna in 2016, though for an unrelated purpose.
French scientists at the IHU Mediterranee Infection have announced the discovery of a new variant of SARS-CoV-2 which, they say has more mutations than Omicron and may be more resistant to vaccines.
The Spanish flu and Swine flu are both made much worse when a particular bacterium is present at the same time. Could Covid behave similarly?
Research indicates the Common Cold suppresses COVID-19 infection. In a guest post, Guy de la Bédoyère points out that lockdowns may have stopped us getting the very thing that would have protected us against coronavirus.
