Wuhan 熟考する／考慮する left unpublished for a YEAR finds animals, 含むing dogs and raccoons which are known to carry coronaviruses, were sold at 悪名高い wet market in 2010s

• e-mail

A new 熟考する／考慮する that remained unpublished for more than a year 設立する that animals known to be carrying coronaviruses were sold at 地元の wet markets in the 2010s.??

研究員s from the Chinese 政府's 重要な 研究室／実験室 of 南西 中国 野性生物 資源s 自然保護, the University of Oxford in the UK and the University of British Columbia in Canada collected data from several markets in Wuhan and photographs from the Huanan seafood market.?

Published in the 定期刊行物 科学の 報告（する）／憶測s, the 熟考する／考慮する 設立する that several 種類 含むing civets, dogs, minks, raccoons and more - 感染させるd with different types of coronaviruses - were sold for years, 報告（する）／憶測d Bloomberg.

For the past several months, there has been 支援する-and-前へ／外へ 憶測 about the origins of COVID-19 and whether it （機の）カム from wild animals or was 製造（する）d in and accidentally escaped from a 研究室／実験室.

The findings seem to support scientists' 初めの theory, which is that the ウイルス occurred in nature before it jumped to humans.?

A 熟考する／考慮する from 研究員s in 中国, the UK and Canada that went unpublished for more than a year has been 地位，任命するd online looking at four markets in Wuhan. Pictured, from Huanan seafood market in Wuhan: (a) king ネズミ snake (b) Chinese bamboo ネズミ (c) Amur hedgehog 存在 sold

The 報告（する）／憶測 finds that more than 38 種類 of wild live animals were sold for food and as pets from the markets in Wuhan. Pictured, from Huanan seafood market:?(d) raccoon dog (e) Marmot and hedgehogs, and (f) hog badger 存在 sold

The 熟考する／考慮する was 初めは conceived as a way to 熟考する／考慮する the origins of a tick-borne illness that had sickened hundreds in 中国's Hubei 州 years earlier, によれば Bloomberg.??

Lead author Dr Xiao Xiao, a virologist at the 重要な 研究室／実験室 of 南西 中国 野性生物 資源s 自然保護, collected data from four markets in Wuhan between May 2017 and November 2019.

When doctors began to 報告（する）／憶測 in January 2020 that a mysterious 肺炎-like 病気 was 広範囲にわたる through Wuhan, Xiao 共同製作するd with other scientists and began 徹底的に捜すing through his data.

They 設立する that more than 47,000 処理／取引s of 38 種類 of wild live animals - 含むing 哺乳動物s, birds and reptiles - during the two-and-a-half year period.?

The animals, which were sold for food and as pets, were kept in poor hygiene 条件s and were 感染させるd with a 範囲 of zoonotic 病気s, which are 感染性の 病気s that jump fr om a 非，不，無-human animal to humans.

の中で the 病気 含む influenza, rabies and several coronaviruses 含むing those that 起こる／始まる in birds and in fowl.

One of the 感染させるd animals, a masked palm civet, is a 種類 linked to the 2003 突発／発生 突発／発生 of 厳しい 激烈な／緊急の Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), a cousin of the new ウイルス.??< /p>

The team put together a manuscript and sent the 報告（する）／憶測 to a 定期刊行物 in February 2020, but it was 拒絶するd, 報告（する）／憶測d Bloomberg.?

'We'd imagined that the 定期刊行物 we sent it to would say: "Fantastic! Of course we want these data out as quickly as we can. The World Health Organization would be 絶対 thrilled to receive this （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状）,"' co-author Dr Chris Newman of the University of Oxford, told the news website.

'[The 定期刊行物] did not think [the 熟考する／考慮する] would have 普及した 控訴，上告.'

Newman said the 熟考する／考慮する 供給するd solid 証拠 that live animals were 存在 sold as food at the 中心 of the 突発／発生 and should have been published in the 早期に days of the pandemic.

Several 早期に 報告（する）／憶測s, 含むing a team from Beijing and 世界保健機構 研究員s sent to 中国, seem to 暗示する the 突発／発生 起こる／始まるd from the Wuhan market.

However, the Chinese 政府 switched gears in summer 2020, 否定するing that wet markets 存在する in 中国 and that the ウイルス 起こる／始まるd from wild animals 存在 sold there.

Many of the animals, 特に at the Hunan seafood market, were sold 感染させるd with 病気s, 含むing coronaviruses that 起こる／始まる in birds and in fowl. Pictured: Huanan market in April 2020

The findings may 申し込む／申し出 a 手がかり（を与える） in the origins of COVID-19 and whether it jumped from animals to humans or escaped from a lab. Pictured: CDC illustration of the ウイルス that 原因（となる）s COVID-19

'SARS-CoV-2 could not have かもしれない 発展させるd in an animal market in a big city and even いっそう少なく likely in a 研究室／実験室,” 研究員s from the Chinese 学院 of Science? wrote in a paper 解放（する）d in July, first 報告（する）／憶測d by Bloomberg,.?

The 共産主義者 Party has since 暗示するd that the ウイルス 起こる／始まるd from Europe or even the 部隊d 明言する／公表するs.???

In the paper, Xiao and his 同僚s wrote that in the markets he visited,?at least 30 パーセント of the animals had 傷害s 一貫した with 射撃 負傷させるs or 罠（にかける）s, 暗示するing they had been caught in the wild.

非，不，無 of the 17 shops within the four markets 陳列する，発揮するd an origin 証明書 or 検疫 証明書, 'so all 野性生物 貿易（する） was fundamentally 違法な,' the paper wrote.

Perhaps, most importantly, seven of the shops were linked to some of the earliest every 文書d COVID-19 感染s, 含むing 労働者s at the Huanan market, 報告（する）／憶測d Bloomberg.?

The 研究員s say they 改訂するd the manuscript twice and sent it to a 定期刊行物, but it was 拒絶するd.

The manuscript was 改訂するd again and sent to 科学の 報告（する）／憶測s in October 2020

Springer Nature, which publishes the 定期刊行物, sent a copy to the 世界保健機構, but to a generic email 演説（する）／住所 regarding unpublished 研究 that went unexamined, によれば Bloomberg.?

A copy was also sent to?Maria 先頭 Kerkhove,?COVID-19 technical lead for the 世界保健機構, but she 行方不明になるd the 初めの email and never received a follow-up.

Since then, a 報告（する）／憶測 from The 塀で囲む Street 定期刊行物,?特記する／引用するing a 以前 公表されていない U.S. 知能 報告（する）／憶測, 詳細（に述べる）d how three 研究員s from 中国's Wuhan 学校／設ける of Virology (WIV) sought hospital care in November 2019, months before 中国 公表する／暴露するd the COVID-19 pandemic,??

The newspaper said the 報告（する）／憶測 - which 供給するs fresh 詳細（に述べる）s on the number of 研究員s 影響する／感情d, the タイミング of their illnesses, and their hospital visits - may 追加する 負わせる to calls for a broader 調査（する） of whether the COVID-19 ウイルス could have escaped from the 研究室／実験室.???

In late May, 大統領 Joe Biden ordered a 90-day review in to the origins of COVID-19, which is 始める，決める to be published later this month.?
