| 10:01 AM 5/13/2020 - The Oktoberfest Hypothesis of the Covid-19 Pandemic' start and origins | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 The average time period, from start to peak for the epidemics of the flu-like illnesses appears to be approximately 6 months. It looks like the present Covid-19 Epidemic in the Western Europe and New York peaked about April 1 or the beginning of April. This gives the time of the Epidemic start around the beginning of October 2019, the same estimate as in the recent studies. In my opinion, this assumed time frame points to confirmation of the Oktoberfest Hypothesis as the starting point for this Pandemic, which was spread around the world largely by the air travel from Munich, Germany, and later from the other "Karneval" cities in the Western Germany, by the more than 6 million tourists in attendance. The deliberate and intentional spread is very likely, in my opinion. The exact means and the mechanisms of this spread remain to be investigated and elicited.

| There is one, and only one strain of SARS-CoV-2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 The moment a preprint emerges describing a new patient isolate of SARS-CoV-2, with a change in the genome sequence, the world seems to explode with concern about a new viral strain. I want to explain why such angst is misguided and in the process explain exactly what is a virus strain and a virus isolate.In science, word usage matters. And sadly, even virologists often do not use their terms properly. Ive written about it before. When SARS-CoV-2 is isolated from a COVID-19 patient, that virus is called an isolate. The origin of the term is clear: the virus has been isolated from a patient. These virus isolates are all the same strain of SARS-CoV-2. They are not different strains, even if they have changes in their genome sequences. A virus strain is an isolate with a different biological property, such as binding to a different receptor, or having a distinctly different stability at higher temperatures, to give just two of many possible examples. There is only one strain of SARS-CoV-2. The first virus isolate, taken from a Wuhan patient in December 2019, is the same strain as the most recent isolate taken anywhere else in the world in May 2020. So far no one has shown that any of these virus isolates differ in any fundamental property. I can hear some of you shouting, but isnt a nucleotide change enough to make a strain? The answer is a resounding NO. Every virus expelled by an infected individual differs from the next by many base changes. It would be foolish and of little utility to call each patient isolate a strain. That term is reserved only for special changes that confer a new property to the virus. No doubt you have heard reports of different SARS-CoV-2 strains, but I assure you they are likely wrong. Some time ago it was claimed in China that there were L and S strains with distinct pathogenicity in humans. Wrong. You will also hear that there are eight circulating strains of the virus. Wrong. These are all isolates. None have been shown to have a distinct biological property, no matter what the preprints claim. Most of these claims are in preprints and, if the scientific review process does its job, most of them will simply be reports of new genome sequences with no associated biological changes. The most recent offender is a preprint claiming that SARS-CoV-2 with an amino acid change in the spike glycoprotein (D614G) increases the transmissibility of the virus. The claim that this amino acid change increases viral transmission is unsubstantiated and likely incorrect. There is no doubt that viruses with the D614G change are emerging in different geographical regions of the world. Until proven otherwise, their emergence is likely due to the founder effect. Lets say a virus with D614G emerges during replication in a persons respiratory tract. If viruses with that change infect the next person, and the next, and so on, then the D614G change will predominate. The change is simply a single nucleotide polymorphism of little consequence. It is the noise produced by error-prone RNA synthesis by the virus. Viruses with D614S are simply virus isolates. They are not strains of SARS-CoV-2. Because of the founder effect, showing that a particular mutation increases viral transmission in humans is very difficult. Many such claims have been made for other viruses in the past, but none have been proven. One that comes to mind is a single amino acid that emerged in the Ebolavirus glycoprotein early in the 2015 West Africa outbreak and was subsequently found in all isolates. No proof emerged that it was not simply a founder effect. I would also caution that making claims that SARS-CoV-2 is becoming more transmissible ignores the fact that the virus is already exceedingly transmissible among humans. For an amino acid change such as D614S to be positively selected, as opposed to being maintained as a consequence of the founder effect, requires selective pressure. For such an already highly transmissible virus, the nature of such selection pressure is difficult to discern. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Anyone who, at this juncture, states categorically that COVID-19 is a naturally-occurring disease that mutated in animal populations, acquiring the ability to infect humans and did so via bats in the Wuhan Seafood Market, has not read or does not understand the scientific literature.
Yes, coronaviruses have previously jumped from animals to humans, but that does not mean that COVID-19 did. First of all, it was already known by the end of January 2020 that the initial patients hospitalized between December 1-10, 2019 had not visited the Wuhan Seafood Market, and by the beginning of February 2020 a scientific report established that there were no bats sold in that market. Those observations alone should have immediately raised doubts within the scientific community about the validity of a naturally-occurring theory for COVID-19. There is also no evolutionary pathway that conclusively demonstrates that COVID-19 was the product of a natural process. Questioning the naturally-occurring theory for the origin of COVID-19 is especially warranted given the presence of the unique furin polybasic cleavage site that does not exist in any of the yet-identified coronavirus close relatives. There are, however, other reasons for scientists to doubt the naturally-occurring theory. Viruses can change naturally or artificially through mutation, recombination events or both. Given the sophistication of modern techniques, the two can be indistinguishable. Nevertheless, sometimes clues are left behind. The claim that COVID-19 is naturally-occurring is based nearly entirely on a single, but widely-cited Nature Medicine article entitled The Proximal Origin of SAR-CoV-2, which compares the structure of COVID-19 to what the authors consider its closest relative found in animal populations, specifically, the bat coronavirus RaTG13. RaTG13 was isolated by Wuhan Institute of Virology scientists from Yunnan Province bats in July 2013, but, strangely, its sequence was not submitted for publication until January 2020 and was unknown to the scientific community before then. It does not appear that anyone outside of China has verified the sequence of RaTG13, nor have any independent laboratories had an opportunity to conduct experiments on a strain critical to the naturally-occurring theory. One author suggests the RaTG13 sequence might be fabricated. For the sake of argument, lets consider the sequence accurate. The naturally-occurring theory for the origin of COVID-19, which is based entirely on comparing its structure to RaTG13, begins to unravel when the genome of RaTG13 is examined more closely compared to the amino acid sequence. Comparing the sequences in the S2 portion of the critical spike protein, between positions 647 and 1124, which would ordinarily tolerate mutations, not a single amino acid changes. Yet, at the gene level, which codes for those amino acids, the two differ 79 times. Stated simply, the statistical probability of that occurring is 1 in 9,526,094, suggesting either COVID-19 or RaTG13 is not natural. It is clearly premature to say definitively that COVID-19 is naturally-occurring when we do not fully know about what coronaviruses China has isolated, what experiments have been done with them and if the conclusions published by Chinese scientists are accurate, in particular, those conclusions published in 2020. Since the outbreak began, China has flooded the scientific literature with subtle and sometimes not so subtle messages supporting its narrative that COVID-19 is naturally-occurring. Despite the enormous number of comments made by Western media and the amount of digital ink expended by its so-called experts, the main evidence presented so far supporting the naturally-occurring theory of the origin of COVID-19 may be, at best, circumstantial or, at worst, completely wrong.

| Chinas narrative about the origin of COVID-19 is starting to unravel, Opinions & Blogs News | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The narrative promoted by China as to the origin of COVID-19 and the one quickly adopted by the scientific establishment and the media has always been that COVID-19, while circulating in a bat population, mutated, acquiring the ability to infect humans, which was then transmitted to people either visiting or working in the Wuhan Seafood Market
On February 3, 2020, Chinese researchers led by Zheng-Li Shi of the Wuhan Institute of Virology published an article in the prestigious journal Nature, which became the basis of the naturally-occurring narrative by identifying a previously unknown bat coronavirus, RaTg13, as a close relative to COVID-19. A month later, using RaTG13 as a linchpin of its argument, Western scientists published The Proximal Origin of SAR-CoV-2, which became the single most widely-cited article by scientists and the media to support the contention that COVID-19 came from nature. Thus, originated the wide scientific consensus claimed even by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in the United States in its April 30, 2020 statement that COVID-19 was not manmade or genetically modified. It did not take long for doubts about the validity of the RaTG13 argument or even its existence to appear, as the April 25, 2020 article Is Bat Coronavirus 4991 a Smoking Gun in Chinas COVID-19 Cover-up? will attest. We have now learned that RaTG13 existed only on paper. RaTG13 and BtCoV/4991 are the same virus. How long has this been known by the scientists involved and has it been part of a deliberate deception? "Although sequenced earlier, the entire RaTG13 genome was later uploaded to the National Institutes of Health GenBank with an updated timestamp of March 24, 2020 and an accession number MN996532.1." In that filing, there is no mention of BtCoV/4991. Yet, in a Chinese virus database, dated March 7, 2020 in the source code, RaTG13 and BtCoV/4991 are listed as equivalent and links to the NIH GenBank. What else has China been hiding? The numerous inconsistencies in the theory that COVID-19 is naturally-occurring are well-documented. A thorough, objective investigation of the true origin of COVID-19 is long overdue.

Since the outset of the COVID-19 coronavirus disease pandemic, weve fielded a number of questions about the origins of this strain of coronavirus. While the general consensus of the scientific community is that COVID-19 evolved naturally, there have been some outliers who have proposed other theories about this diseases origins. Luc Montagnier, for instance, a French virologist who won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 2008 for his discovery of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), said during an appearance on Frances CNews that COVID-19 was not natural and suggested that this disease actually resulted from work done by molecular biologists who were attempting to create an AIDS vaccine. Montagnier said (translation via European Scientist): We came to the conclusion that there was manipulation around this virus. [] To a part but I do not say the total [] of the coronavirus of the bat, someone added sequences, in particular of HIV, the virus of AIDS. [] It is not natural. Its the work of professionals, of molecular biologists. [] A very meticulous work. While Montagnier truly made these statements, his theory that COVID-19 was artificially created in an attempt to create an AIDS vaccine has been widely disputed by scientists. Virologist Etienne Simon-Lorière from the Pasteur Institute in Paris called the theory absurd, saying: That does not make sense. These are very small elements that are found in other viruses of the same family, other coronaviruses in nature These are pieces of the genome that actually look like lots of sequences in the genetic material of bacteria, viruses and plants.European Scientist also published an article debunking Montagniers claim. During his appearance on CNews, Montagnier noted that his theory was supported by a paper published by a group of researchers in India. While its true that a paper claiming that HIV-1s genetic code could be found in COVID-19, this paper, as the Cnews presenters noted, was not published in a peer-reviewed journal. Furthermore, the paper was subsequently withdrawn by its authors. We addressed that paper in another article concerning various conspiracy theories about the origins of the coronavirus: Does the Novel Coronavirus Contain HIV-Related Genes?While many of the medical professionals responding to Montagniers statements tended to focus on scientific issues with his claim, CNews noted Montagniers history of wading into pseudoscience territory. Montagnier, for instance, is a proponent of water memory, an unproven theory at the center of many homeopathic remedies, which, according to Richard Sachleben, a retired chemist and member of the American Chemical Societys panel of experts, doesnt hold up to scientific scrutiny. Nobel Prize-winner Montagnier truly said that COVID-19 was created in a lab by researchers who were attempting to make an AIDS vaccine. However, that doesnt mean what he said was accurate. In fact, a peer-reviewed study from the Scripps Research Institute that was published in the journal Nature in March 2020 found no evidence that the virus was made in a laboratory or otherwise engineered. National Institute of Health Director Dr. Francis Collins provided his thoughts on this study from the Scripps Research Institute in a blog post, writing that a new study debunks such claims by providing scientific evidence that this novel coronavirus arose naturally. Collins went on to say that there is still much to learn about the origins of COVID-19, especially on how it was initially transmitted to humans. For this, Collins provides two scenarios: No matter where you go online these days, theres bound to be discussion of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Some folks are even making outrageous claims that the new coronavirus causing the pandemic was engineered in a lab and deliberately released to make people sick. A new study debunks such claims by providing scientific evidence that this novel coronavirus arose naturally.This isnt the first time weve been asked about comments a Nobel Prize winner supposedly made about the coronavirus. Another Nobel laureate, Tasuku Honjo, was also rumored to have said that COVID-19 was man-made. While the scientific community disputed the accuracy of Montagniers comments, Honjos alleged comment was dismissed because he simply didnt say it. That quote was entirely fictional. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| A virus wrapped in mystery | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In support of public health, were continuing to keep our vital coronavirus content available to all readers online.
The coronavirus has killed so many people in Iran that the country has resorted to mass burials, but in neighboring Iraq, the body count is fewer than 100.
The Dominican Republic has reported nearly 7,600 cases of the virus. Just across the border, Haiti has recorded about 85. The coronavirus has touched almost every country on earth, but its impact has seemed capricious. Global metropolises like New York, Paris and London have been devastated, while teeming cities like Bangkok, Baghdad, New Delhi and Lagos have, so far, largely been spared. [CORONAVIRUS: Click here for our complete coverage » arkansasonline.com/coronavirus] The question of why the virus has overwhelmed some places and left others relatively untouched is a puzzle that has spawned numerous theories and speculations but no definitive answers. That knowledge could have profound implications for how countries respond to the virus, for determining who is at risk and for knowing when it's safe to go out again. There are already hundreds of studies underway around the world looking into how demographics, preexisting conditions and genetics might affect the wide variation in impact. Doctors in Saudi Arabia are studying whether genetic differences may help explain varying levels of severity in covid-19 cases among Saudi Arabs, while scientists in Brazil are looking into the relationship between genetics and covid-19 complications. Teams in multiple countries are studying if common hypertension medications might worsen the disease's severity and whether a particular tuberculosis vaccine might do the opposite. Many developing nations with hot climates and young populations have escaped the worst, suggesting that temperature and demographics could be factors. But countries like Peru, Indonesia and Brazil, tropical countries in the throes of growing epidemics, throw cold water on that idea. Draconian social distancing and early lockdown measures have clearly been effective, but Burma, also known as Myanmar, and Cambodia did neither and have reported few cases. One theory that is unproven but impossible to refute: Maybe the virus just hasn't gotten to those countries yet. Russia and Turkey appeared to be fine until, suddenly, they were not. Time may still prove the greatest equalizer. The Spanish flu that broke out in the United States in 1918 seemed to die down during the summer only to come roaring back with a deadlier strain in the fall and a third wave the following year. It eventually reached far-flung places like islands in Alaska and the South Pacific and infected a third of the world's population. "We are really early in this disease," said Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Research Institute. "If this were a baseball game, it would be the second inning, and there's no reason to think that by the ninth inning the rest of the world that looks now like it hasn't been affected won't become like other places." Doctors who study infectious diseases around the world say they do not have enough data yet to get a full epidemiological picture, and that gaps in information in many countries make it dangerous to draw conclusions. Testing is woeful in many places, leading to vast underestimates of the virus's progress, and deaths are almost certainly undercounted. Still, the broad patterns are clear. Even in places with abysmal record-keeping and broken health systems, mass burials or hospitals turning away sick people by the thousands would be hard to miss, and a number of places are just not seeing them -- at least not yet. Interviews with more than two dozen infectious disease experts, health officials, epidemiologists and academics around the globe suggest four main factors that could help explain where the virus thrives and where it doesn't: demographics, culture, environment and the speed of government responses. Each possible explanation comes with considerable caveats and confounding counterevidence. If an aging population is the most vulnerable, for instance, Japan should be at the top of the list. It is far from it. Nonetheless, these are the factors that experts find the most persuasive. POWER OF YOUTH Many countries that have escaped mass epidemics have relatively younger populations. Young people are more likely to contract mild or asymptomatic cases that are less transmissible to others, said Robert Bollinger, a professor of infectious diseases at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. And they are less likely to have certain health problems that can make covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, particularly deadly, according to the World Health Organization. Africa -- with about 45,000 reported cases, a tiny fraction of its 1.3 billion people -- is the world's youngest continent, with more than 60% of its population under age 25. In Thailand and Najaf, Iraq, local health officials found that the 20-29 age group had the highest rate of infection but often showed few symptoms. By contrast, the national median age in Italy, one of the hardest-hit countries, is more than 45. The average age of those who died of covid-19 there was around 80. Younger people tend to have stronger immune systems, which can result in milder symptoms, said Josip Car, an expert in population and global health at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. In Singapore and Saudi Arabia, for instance, most of the infections are among foreign migrant workers, many of them living in cramped dormitories. However, many of those workers are young and fit, and have not required hospitalization. Along with youth, relative good health can lessen the impact of the virus among those who are infected, while certain preexisting conditions -- notably hypertension, diabetes and obesity -- can worsen the severity, researchers in the United States say. There are notable exceptions to the demographic theory. Japan, with the world's oldest average population, has recorded fewer than 520 deaths, although its caseload has risen with increased testing. The Guayas region of Ecuador, the epicenter of an outbreak that may have claimed up to 7,000 lives, has one of the youngest populations in the country, with only 11% of its residents over 60 years old. And Jha of Harvard warns that some young people who are not showing symptoms are highly contagious for reasons that are not well understood. CULTURAL DISTANCE Cultural factors, like the social distancing that is built into certain societies, may give some countries more protection, epidemiologists said. In Thailand and India, where virus numbers are relatively low, people greet one another at a distance, with their individual palms together as in prayer. In Japan and South Korea, people bow, and long before the coronavirus arrived, they tended to wear masks when feeling unwell. In much of the developing world, the custom of caring for the elderly at home leads to fewer nursing homes, which have been tinder for outbreaks in the West. However, there are notable exceptions to the cultural-distancing theory. In many parts of the Middle East, such as Iraq and the Persian Gulf countries, men often embrace or shake hands on meeting, yet most are not getting sick. What might be called "national distancing" has also proven advantageous. Countries that are relatively isolated have reaped health benefits from their seclusion. Far-flung nations, such as some in the South Pacific and parts of sub-Saharan Africa, have not been as inundated with visitors who carry the virus with them. Health experts in Africa cite limited travel from abroad as perhaps the main reason for the continent's relatively low infection rate. Countries that are less accessible for political reasons, like Venezuela, or because of conflict, like Syria and Libya, have also been somewhat shielded by the lack of travelers, as have countries like Lebanon and Iraq, which have endured widespread protests in recent months. The lack of public transportation in developing countries may have also reduced the spread of the virus there. HEAT AND LIGHT The geography of the outbreak -- which spread rapidly during the winter in temperate-zone countries like Italy and the United States and was virtually unseen in warmer countries such as Chad or Guyana -- seemed to suggest that the virus did not take well to heat. Other coronaviruses, such as ones that cause the common cold, are less contagious in warmer, moist climates. But researchers say the idea that hot weather alone can repel the virus is wishful thinking. Some of the worst outbreaks in the developing world have been in places like the Amazonas region of Brazil, as tropical a place as any. "The best guess is that summer conditions will help but are unlikely by themselves to lead to significant slowing of growth or to a decline in cases," said Marc Lipsitch, director of the Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics at Harvard University. The virus that causes covid-19 appears to be so contagious as to mitigate any beneficial effect of heat and humidity, said Dr. Raul Rabadan, a computational biologist at Columbia University. But other aspects of warm climates, like people spending more time outside, could help. "People living indoors within enclosed environments may promote virus recirculation, increasing the chance of contracting the disease," said Car of the Nanyang Technological University. The ultraviolet rays of direct sunlight inhibit this coronavirus, according to a study by ecological modelers at the University of Connecticut. So surfaces in sunny places may be less likely to remain contaminated, but transmission usually occurs through contact with an infected person, not by touching a surface. No scientist has proposed that beaming light inside an infected person, as President Donald Trump has suggested, would be an effective cure. And tropical conditions may have even lulled some people into a false sense of security. "People were saying, 'It's hot here; nothing will happen to me,'" said Dr. Doménica Cevallos, a medical investigator in Ecuador. "Some were even going out on purpose to sunbathe, thinking it would protect them from infection." EARLY LOCKDOWNS Countries that locked down early, like Vietnam and Greece, have been able to avoid out-of-control contagions, evidence of the power of strict social distancing and quarantines to contain the virus. In Africa, countries with bitter experience with killers like HIV, drug-resistant tuberculosis and Ebola knew the drill and reacted quickly. Airport staffs from Sierra Leone to Uganda were taking temperatures (since found to be a less effective measure) and contact details, and wearing masks long before their counterparts in the United States and Europe took such precautions. Senegal and Rwanda closed their borders and announced curfews when they still had few cases. Health ministries began contact tracing early. All that happened in a region where health ministries had come to rely on money, personnel and supplies from foreign donors, many of which had to turn their attention to outbreaks in their own countries, said Catherine Kyobutungi, executive director of the African Population and Health Research Center. "Countries wake up one day, and they're like, 'OK, the weight of the country rests on our shoulders, so we need to step up,'" she said. "And they have. Some of the responses have been beautiful to behold, honestly." Sierra Leone repurposed disease-tracking protocols that had been established in the wake of the Ebola outbreak in 2014, in which almost 4,000 people died there. The government set up emergency operations centers in every district and recruited 14,000 community health workers, 1,500 of whom are being trained as contact tracers, even though Sierra Leone has only about 155 confirmed cases. It is not clear, however, who will pay for their salaries or for expenses like motorcycles and raincoats to keep them operating during the coming wet season. Uganda, which also suffered during the Ebola contagion, quickly quarantined travelers from Dubai after the first case of the coronavirus arrived from there. Authorities also tracked down about 800 others who had traveled from Dubai in previous weeks. The Ugandan health authorities are also testing about 1,000 truck drivers a day. But many of those who test positive have traveled from Tanzania and Kenya, countries that are not monitoring as aggressively, leading to worries that the virus will keep penetrating porous borders. Lockdowns, with bans on religious conclaves and spectator sporting events, clearly work, the World Health Organization says. More than a month after closing national borders, schools and most businesses, countries from Thailand to Jordan have seen new infections drop. In the Middle East, the widespread shuttering of mosques, shrines and churches happened relatively early and probably helped stem the spread in many countries. A notable exception was Iran, which did not close some of its largest shrines until March 18, a full month after it registered its first case in the pilgrimage city of Qum. The epidemic spread quickly from there, killing thousands in the country and spreading the virus across borders as pilgrims returned home. As effective as lockdowns are, in countries lacking a strong social safety net and those where most people work in the informal economy, orders closing businesses and requiring people to shelter in place will be difficult to maintain for long. When people are forced to choose between social distancing and feeding their families, they are choosing the latter. Counterintuitively, some countries where authorities reacted late and with spotty enforcement of lockdowns appear to have been spared. Cambodia and Laos both had brief spates of infections when few social distancing measures were in place, but neither has recorded a new case in about three weeks. Lebanon, whose Muslim and Christian citizens often go on pilgrimages respectively to Iran and Italy, places rife with the virus, should have had high numbers of infections. It has not. "We just didn't see what we were expecting," said Dr. Roy Nasnas, an infectious disease consultant at the University Hospital Geitaoui in Beirut. "We don't know why." ROLL OF THE DICE Finally, most experts agree that there may be no single reason for some countries to be hit and others missed. The answer is likely to be some combination of the above factors as well as one other mentioned by researchers: Sheer luck. Countries with the same culture and climate could have vastly different outcomes if one infected person attends a crowded social occasion, turning it into what researchers call a superspreader event. That happened when a passenger infected 634 people on the Diamond Princess cruise ship off the coast of Japan, when an infected guest attended a large funeral in Albany, Ga.; and when a 61-year-old woman went to church in Daegu, South Korea, spreading the disease to hundreds of congregants and then to thousands of other Koreans. Because an infected person may not experience symptoms for a week or more, if at all, the disease spreads under the radar, exponentially and seemingly at random. Had the woman in Daegu stayed home that Sunday in February, the outbreak in South Korea might have been less than half of what it is. Some countries that should have been inundated are not, leaving researchers scratching their heads. Thailand reported the first confirmed case of coronavirus outside of China in mid-January, from a traveler from Wuhan, the Chinese city where the pandemic is thought to have begun. In those critical weeks, Thailand continued to welcome an influx of Chinese visitors. For some reason, these tourists did not set off exponential local transmission. And when countries do all the wrong things and still end up seemingly not as battered by the virus as one would expect, go figure. "In Indonesia, we have a health minister who believes you can pray away [the virus], and we have too little testing," said Dr. Pandu Riono, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Indonesia. "But we are lucky we have so many islands in our country that limit travel and maybe infection. "There's nothing else we're doing right," he added.

On Tuesday, 5 May, Britains chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, told MPs that genome sequencing suggests that the UK got many of its coronavirus cases from Europe, rather than China.
"One of the things that it looks like, very clearly, is that early in March the UK got many, many different imports of virus from many different places," he said.
"And those places were particularly from European countries with outbreaks.
"And so we see a big influx of cases, probably from Italy and Spain, looking at the genomics of the virus in early March, seeded right the way across the country, and so whether that was people returning from half-term, whether it's business travellers or not we don't know, but a lot of the cases in the UK didn't come from China and didn't come from the places you might have expected.
"They actually came from European imports and the high level of travel into the UK around that time."
Questions have been raised about a Champions League match with Atletico Madrid in Liverpool in March and whether it increased the spread of coronavirus in the city.
Liverpool and the greater region have suffered disproportionately from coronavirus.
On 11 March, 3,000 fans travelled from Madrid for the clash with Liverpool, at a time when they were not permitted to watch their own team play at home, as all La Liga matches were ordered to be played behind closed doors, without fans present.
...According to Alessandro Vespignani, a professor at Northeastern University in Boston, the novel coronavirus was already circulating in major US cities in January. _______________________________________________________________________ The version of the coronavirus now gripping the UK and Europe is more infectious than the one that triggered the pandemic in China, according to scientists.

Believed to have originated in China or Europe the version of the virus, dubbed G614, is now 'the dominant pandemic form in many countries', the scientists said.
They said it was first found in Germany in February and had since become the most common form of the virus in patients worldwide - it appears to force out the older version whenever they clash.
 M.N.: My interpretation of this phenomenon. (I hypothesized it earlier, before this study, which appears to confirm it). The Epidemic in China was introduced first (either by the Germans - the New Abwehr, or by the Russian GRU, or both, which is most likely) as the cover and the diversion: to create the element of confusion and to make the true detection and understanding more difficult, in order to give the pandemic more time to develop and to spread around. After the Epidemic developed in Wuhan, Germany evacuated 150 of its citizens, on a special military plane; and Russia evacuated 600, most of whom, very likely, were their agents, who possibly started the Epidemic there. The effects of the strict surveillance in China and South Korea can be explained not by the "social distancing" and tracing the cases so much, as by the putting the stop to the intentional criminal spread, by whatever means it was done. Furthermore, the patterns of the new cases in China and South Korea appear to be very different from the rest of the world, as it was described in the previous post. I named this pattern as the "Preliminary Wave".   Note the February 14-16 spikes on China, and March 1 on South Korea graphs. I call them the Valentine and the Ides of March greeting cards. They probably were the messages, predicting the future Pandemic. The real Epidemics, from Europe, with G614 strain followed soon, most likely via air travel from the Oktoberfest and the other "Karnevals". It looks like these are the different illnesses, with practically the different pathogens and different clinical picture, more severe and more transmissible in the case of G614 (the "European") strain. This also poses the questions about the validity and usefulness of the antigen tests if they were based on the Chinese samples. The preponderance of this strain in Italy indicates that it was imported more easily and more readily from Germany. A certain skepticism regarding the B. Korber's - Los Alamos study were expressed.

| Military World Games in Wuhan in focus: We are all sick | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
© DIMITAR DILKOFF Matteo Tagliariol on the World Military Games in Wuhan Fencing Olympic champion Matteo Tagliariol already suspects the military world games held in Wuhan, China last October, as a hotspot of the corona pandemic. When we arrived in Wuhan, we were all sick. All six people in my apartment were sick, including many athletes from other delegations, the 37-year-old Italian told the Corriere della Sera newspaper. The Military World Games were held in Wuhan from October 18-27, 2019. The first case of infection was officially reported in China in December. However, there is speculation that the coronavirus has already spread. I had a severe cough, many other athletes had a fever, said Tagliariol, who won gold in epee fencing in Beijing in 2008. The worst awaited him when he returned to Italy. I had a very high fever and could not breathe. Antibiotics did not help either. I was sick and very weak for three weeks. Then my two-year-old son Leo fell ill. He coughed for three weeks. My partner also got sick, but in When I started talking about the virus, I thought: I was infected. I recognized the symptoms of COVID 19. I am an athlete, I was very bad for my standards, said Tagliariol. Almost 10,000 athletes from more than 140 countries had participated in the Military World Games in Wuhan, from Germany there were 243 athletes. More than 230,000 volunteers were involved in the competitions. According to LEquipe, French pentathlete Elodie Clouvel and Valentin Belaud are also likely to have been infected at the Wuhan games. The World Military Games have been held every four years by the Military World Sports Association since 1995, modeled on the Olympic Games in summer and every four years in winter since 2010. The Summer Games always take place one year before the Summer Olympics, the Winter Games are held in the same year. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

SPANISH athletes returned from the World Military Games in Wuhan in October having displayed coronavirus symptoms. According to the Ministry of Defence none of the suspected victims had been tested. The Spanish team was made up of about 170 people. According to Ministry sources who spoke to El Mundo, two athletes displayed flu-like symptoms during the Games between October 17-28 and two others displayed them upon their return to Spain. One of these athletes told El Mundo: The authorities just took it as a sore throat or flu infection and they treated us as if we were already cured, it was very bad. China only informed the World Health Organisation (WHO) of the extent of the seriousness of COVID-19 on December 31, 65 days after the end of the World Military Games. This week, after symptoms emerged in the French military from the Games, Spanish team leaders asked the athletes who participated in Wuhan if they had shown any signs of the pandemic. The Ministry of Defence was not aware of any of its participants in the Games displaying any symptoms and its too late to test them now. They did however state that the Spanish delegation was not housed near the French one. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Did European athletes catch coronavirus while competing at World Military Games in Wuhan in OCTOBER? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
French athletes believe they caught coronavirus at the World Military Games in Wuhan in October, 20 days before the first recorded case in China.
It comes after it was revealed that Frenchman Amirouche Hammar, 43, had been infected with COVID-19 outside Paris as early as December. The hospital where Hammar was treated for chest pains has since re-tested samples and found the fishmonger was positive for the virus on December 27. It is not known where he caught the virus, although his wife works close to Charles de Gaulle airport. A number of French athletes who were at the World Military Games from October 18 to 27 have since described coming down with severe flu-like symptoms while at the event. Elodie Clouvel, a world champion modern pentathlete, was asked on March 25 whether she was anxious about spending the summer in Japan for the Olympics. She told Loire 7: 'No because I think that with Velentin (Belaud, her partner, also a pentathlete) we have already had the coronavirus, well the COVID-19.'

Amirouche Hammar (pictured) has revealed himself as the French patient who had coronavirus as early as December 27
Elodie Clouvel told French media she wasn't concerned about competing at the Olympics in Japan because she'd already had the virus
The 31-year-old went on: 'We were in Wuhan for the World Military Games at the end of October. And afterwards, we all fell ill. Valentin missed three days of training. Me, I was sick too. [...] I had things I had never had before. We weren't particularly worried because no one was talking about it yet.'French 'patient zero' had COVID-19 in December
Amirouche Hammar came forward after a hospital near Paris revealed it had re-tested old flu samples and found a positive test for coronavirus on December 27.
The Algerian-born fish market worker had not travelled to China, and the result suggests the virus was spreading in France well before January 24 when the country confirmed its first case. Speaking to BFMTV, Hammar said he had suffered 'very serious' chest pains but said doctors had been mystified by his illness before eventually diagnosing a lung infection. Although experts have urged caution about the findings, the WHO said today it was 'not surprising' that a case had occurred in December and said that more such discoveries were possible. 'It's also possible there are more early cases to be found,' WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier told a UN briefing in Geneva. Hammar's wife works at a supermarket near Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris where passengers are known to go shopping after they land. The doctor who revealed the case said the patient's wife had worked at a fish market with Chinese colleagues. The French delegation were competing in the 7th World Military Games in Wuhan - just 20 days before the first Chinese person officially became ill with coronavirus - with 402 athletes present, along with 10,000 other athletes from all over the world. According to French news channel BFMTV, a number of athletes returned to France with unusual symptoms, including fevers and body aches. According to the news channel, none of the returning athletes was tested and the French Army who were responsible for organising their athletes at the military games reportedly confirmed that they had not wanted to test any athletes either. Doctors have speculated that the virus might have been making its way around before even December, in November or even in October, and the latest revelations seem to underscore that. BFMTV quotes one athlete, who preferred to remain anonymous, as saying that he originally thought he had simply caught a cold. However, when news began to emerge of an epidemic in Wuhan, many athletes on a WhatsApp group reportedly began to openly wonder if it was possible that they had contracted the disease too. Now that it has been revealed that Amirouche Hammar in France had the coronavirus back in December, closer attention is being paid to what these athletes have said.

Clouvel told French media in March: 'A lot of athletes at the World Military Games were very ill. We were recently in touch with a military doctor who told us: "I think you had it because a lot of people from this delegation were ill."'
Share this articleShare701 shares According to French media, athletes who were in Wuhan reportedly received telephone calls from the army a few weeks ago to reassure them. One of these athletes, who also preferred to remain anonymous, is quoted as saying: 'We were told: there is no risk, you left on 28th October and the virus arrived on 1st November.' French media report that sick athletes were also noted in some other delegations, including the Swedish delegation, with people returning to Sweden with strong fevers. Around 100 people from the Swedish Armed Forces attended the World Military Games in Wuhan and stayed in the city for two weeks. Several competitors fell ill and were screened for the virus, although none were reported to have tested positive. It comes after Sweden's government epidemiologist Anders Tegnell said it was 'very natural' to assume that coronvirus was spreading in Scandinavia from November. Tegnell told Sweden's TT news agency: 'There wasn't any spread [of infection] outside Wuhan until we saw it in Europe later.
State epidemiologist Anders Tegnell (pictured above) claimed individual cases would have been detected among travellers from Wuhan
'But I think that you could find individual cases among Wuhan travellers who were there in November to December last year. That doesn't sound at all strange, but rather very natural.'Sweden - one of just a handful of countries to resist a lockdown - has no plans to implement large-scale sample testing of patients who received care for respiratory symptoms or flu last year to see if they had coronavirus. The country's first official coronavirus case was a woman in Jönköping who tested positive on January 31st after a trip to China. The woman has since recovered from the illness.

| France fears virus may have spread in October after military games in Wuhan | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
France fears the killer coronavirus may have hit Europe from October as several athletes recall becoming very sick while competing in Wuhan back then.
It's now thought that the bug was unleashed in Europe months before the Chinese city in Hubei Province became infamous as the world's original COVID-19 epicentre, according to The Sun.
International athletes who gathered at the World Military Games in Wuhan last October may have brought the killer bug back home with them, French media say. Le Parisian writes that several athletes complained of symptoms upon their return, and that in hindsight, "they may have contracted COVID-19". Elodie Clouvel, a world champion modern pentathlete, was asked on local TV station Television Loire 7 on March 25 if she was worried about the prospect of potentially having to spend the summer in Japan for the Olympics. She replied: "No because I think that with Velentin [Belaud, her partner, also a pentathlete] we have already had the coronavirus, well the COVID-19." 'MISSED TRAINING The 31-year-old added: "We were in Wuhan for the World Military Games at the end of October. "And afterwards, we all fell ill. "Valentin missed three days of training. "Me, I was sick too. I had things I had never had before. We weren't particularly worried because no-one was talking about it [back then]." RELATED: Follow more coronavirus news She added: "A lot of athletes at the World Military Games were very ill. "We were recently in touch with a military doctor who told us: 'I think you had it because a lot of people from this delegation were ill.'" This new revelation comes after it was discovered that a Frenchman, Amirouche Hammar, 43, had been infected with the coronavirus in the Paris region as early as December 27.

RELATED: Flu samples find first French case in DecemberThe French delegation took part in the 7th edition of the World Military Games in Wuhan from October 18-27 last year just 20 days before the first Chinese person officially became ill with coronavirus with 402 athletes present, along with 10,000 other athletes from across the globe. According to French news channel BFMTV, a number of athletes returned to France with unusual symptoms, including fevers and body aches. However, none of the returning athletes were tested. The French Army who were responsible for organising their athletes at the military games reportedly confirmed that they had not wanted to test any athletes either. THOUGHT IT WAS A COLD Doctors have speculated that the virus might have been spreading in France before December in November or even as far back as October and the latest French media revelations seem to underscore that. BFMTV quoted one anonymous athlete saying that he originally thought he had simply caught a cold. But, when news began to emerge of an epidemic in Wuhan, many athletes on a WhatsApp group reportedly began to openly wonder if it was possible that they had previously contracted the disease too. Now that it has been revealed that Amirouche Hammar in France had the coronavirus back in December, closer attention is being paid to what those athletes have said. Local media report that since Elodie Clouvel spoke up on March 25, many athletes have been told not to answer journalists' questions and to refer media inquiries to the head of communication of the French armies.

According to the French media, athletes who were in Wuhan reportedly received telephone calls from the army a few weeks ago to reassure them.One of these athletes, who also preferred to remain anonymous, said: "We were told there is no risk, you left on 28th October and the virus arrived on 1st November. But, given the confusion over when exactly the new coronavirus was unleashed, and revelations from an Associated Press investigation that China didn't warn the public of the likely pandemic for six key days, there are mounting fears that it may have spread beyond its boundaries far earlier than first reported. QUESTIONABLE TIMELINE President Xi Jinping warned the public on January 20. But by that time, more than 3,000 people had been infected in China alone. The Chinese government has repeatedly denied suppressing information in the early days, saying it immediately reported the outbreak to the World Health Organisation (WHO). French media report that sick athletes were also noted in some other military teams, including the Swedish delegation, with people returning to Sweden with strong fevers. Frenchman Amirouche Hammar said he went to hospital while suffering "very serious" pains in his chest and difficulty breathing.

He is now known to have had coronavirus in December, after samples taken late last year were retested and a positive case found.Doctors initially concluded he had a lung infection, and Mr Hammar recovered after spending several days in hospital. It is not known how Mr Hammar, who has no links to China, caught the bug, but his wife works on the fish counter of a supermarket near Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. The finding suggests that the virus arrived in Europe and began to spread long before it was identified and understood as a public health emergency. France officially confirmed its first coronavirus case on January 24, exactly four weeks after the sample that has now tested positive was taken. In an interview with BMFTV, Mr Hammar said he initially thought he had flu, but went to the Avicenne hospital, in the Paris suburbs, after his symptoms became worse.

| Pass the salt: The minute details that helped Germany build virus defences | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
MUNICH (Reuters) - One January lunchtime in a car parts company, a worker turned to a colleague and asked to borrow the salt.
That their exchange was documented at all is the result of intense scrutiny, part of a rare success story in the global fight against the virus. The co-workers were early links in what was to be the first documented chain of multiple human-to-human transmissions outside Asia of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. They are based in Stockdorf, a German town of 4,000 near Munich in Bavaria, and they work at car parts supplier Webasto Group. The company was thrust under a global microscope after it disclosed that one of its employees, a Chinese woman, caught the virus and brought it to Webasto headquarters. There, it was passed to colleagues - including, scientists would learn, a person lunching in the canteen with whom the Chinese patient had no contact. The Jan. 22 canteen scene was one of dozens of mundane incidents that scientists have logged in a medical manhunt to trace, test and isolate infected workers so that the regional government of Bavaria could stop the virus from spreading. That hunt has helped Germany win crucial time to build its COVID-19 defences. The time Germany bought may have saved lives, scientists say. Its first outbreak of locally transmitted COVID-19 began earlier than Italys, but Germany has had many fewer deaths. Italys first detected local transmission was on Feb. 21. By then Germany had kicked off a health ministry information campaign and a government strategy to tackle the virus which would hinge on widespread testing. In Germany so far, more than 2,100 people have died of COVID-19. In Italy, with a smaller population, the total exceeds 17,600. We learned that we must meticulously trace chains of infection in order to interrupt them, Clemens Wendtner, the doctor who treated the Munich patients, told Reuters. Wendtner teamed up with some of Germanys top scientists to tackle what became known as the Munich cluster, and they advised the Bavarian government on how to respond. Bavaria led the way with the lockdowns, which went nationwide on March 22. Scientists including Englands Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty have credited Germanys early, widespread testing with slowing the spread of the virus. We all know Germany got ahead in terms of its ability to do testing for the virus and theres a lot to learn from that, he said on TV earlier this week. Christian Drosten, the top virologist at Berlins Charite hospital, said Germany was helped by having a clear early cluster. Because we had this Munich cohort right at the start ... it became clear that with a big push we could inhibit this spreading further, he said in a daily podcast for NDR radio on the coronavirus. Drosten, who declined to be interviewed for this story, was one of more than 40 scientists involved in scrutiny of the cluster. Their work was documented in preliminary form in a working paper at the end of last month. The paper, not yet peer-reviewed, was shared on the NDR site. ELECTRONIC DIARIESIt was on Monday, Jan. 27, that Holger Engelmann, Webastos CEO, told the authorities that one of his employees had tested positive for the new coronavirus. The woman, who was based in Shanghai, had facilitated several days of workshops and attended meetings at Webastos HQ.The womans parents, from Wuhan, had visited her before she travelled on Jan. 19 to Stockdorf, the paper said. While in Germany, she felt unusual chest and back aches and was tired for her whole stay. But she put the symptoms down to jet lag. She became feverish on the return flight to China, tested positive after landing and was hospitalised. Her parents also later tested positive. She told her managers of the result and they emailed the CEO. In Germany, Engelmann said he immediately set up a crisis team that alerted the medical authorities and started trying to trace staff members who had been in contact with their Chinese colleague. The CEO himself was among them. Just four or five days before I received the news, I had shaken hands with her, he said. Now known as Germanys Case #0, the Shanghai patient is a long-standing, proven employee from project management who Engelmann knows personally, he told Reuters. The company has not revealed her identity or that of others involved, saying anonymity has encouraged staff to co-operate in Germanys effort to contain the virus. The task of finding who had contact with her was made easier by Webasto workers electronic calendars for the most part, all the doctors needed was to look at staff appointments. It was a stroke of luck, said Wendtner, the doctor who treated the Munich patients. We got all the information we needed from the staff to reconstruct the chains of infection. For example, case #1 - the first person in Germany to be infected by the Chinese woman - sat next to her in a meeting in a small room on Jan. 20, the scientists wrote. Where calendar data was incomplete, the scientists said, they were often able to use whole genome sequencing, which analyses differences in the genetic code of the virus from different patients, to map its spread. By following all these links, they discovered that case #4 had been in contact several times with the Shanghai patient. Then case #4 sat back-to-back with a colleague in the canteen. When that colleague turned to borrow the salt, the scientists deduced, the virus passed between them. The colleague became case #5. Webasto said on Jan. 28 it was temporarily closing its Stockdorf site. Between Jan. 27 and Feb. 11, a total of 16 COVID-19 cases were identified in the Munich cluster. All but one were to develop symptoms. Bavaria closed down public life in mid-March. Germany has since closed schools, shops, restaurants, playgrounds and sports facilities, and many companies have shut to aid the cause. HAMMER AND DANCEThis is not to say Germany has defeated COVID-19.Its coronavirus death rate of 1.9%, based on data collated by Reuters, is the lowest among the countries most affected and compares with 12.6% in Italy. But experts say more deaths in Germany are inevitable. The death rate will rise, said Lothar Wieler, president of Germanys Robert Koch Institute for infectious diseases. The difference between Germany and Italy is partly statistical: Germanys rate seems so much lower because it has tested widely. Germany has carried out more than 1.3 million tests, according to the Robert Koch Institute. It is now carrying out up to 500,000 tests a week, Drosten said. Italy has conducted more than 807,000 tests since Feb. 21, according to its Civil Protection Agency. With a few local exceptions, Italy only tests people taken to hospital with clear and severe symptoms. Germanys government is using the weeks gained by the Munich experience to double the number of intensive care beds from about 28,000. The country already has Europes highest number of critical care beds per head of the population, according to a 2012 study. Even that may not be enough, however. An Interior Ministry paper sent to other government departments on March 22 included a worst-case scenario with more than 1 million deaths. Another scenario saw 12,000 deaths - with more testing after partial relaxation of restrictions. That scenario was dubbed hammer and dance, a term coined by blogger Tomas Pueyo. It refers to the hammer of quick aggressive measures for some weeks, including heavy social distancing, followed by the dance of calibrating such measures depending on the transmission rate. The German government paper argued that in the hammer and dance scenario, the use of big data and location tracking is inevitable. Such monitoring is already proving controversial in Germany, where memories of the East German Stasi secret police and its informants are still fresh in the minds of many. A subsequent draft action plan compiled by the government proposes the rapid tracing of infection chains, mandatory mask-wearing in public and limits on gatherings to help enable a phased return to normal life after Germanys lockdown. The government is backing the development of a smartphone app to help trace infections. Germany has said it will re-evaluate the lockdown after the Easter holiday; for the car parts maker at the heart of its first outbreak, the immediate crisis is over. Webastos office has reopened. All 16 people who caught COVID-19 there have recovered.

| Coronavirus: Europe and UK strain more infectious than China's | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The version of the coronavirus now gripping the UK and Europe is more infectious than the one that triggered the pandemic in China, according to scientists.
Researchers in the US and Britain studied the viruses taken from patient samples and found that the West seems to have been hit by a mutated version of the original. They said the mutated form of the virus appears more infectious and spreads faster but it does not seem to affect how seriously ill someone becomes. It also raises the prospect that the virus is able to mutate in a way that could - over time - lead to fundamental chances which reduce the likelihood of natural immunity of the effectiveness of a vaccine. Believed to have originated in China or Europe the version of the virus, dubbed G614, is now 'the dominant pandemic form in many countries', the scientists said. They said it was first found in Germany in February and had since become the most common form of the virus in patients worldwide - it appears to force out the older version whenever they clash. Viruses mutate naturally all the time and it is not usually cause for alarm but should be studied in case they change so much they become unrecognisable to the body and immunity from a first infection cannot protect against them, as is the case with flu. The research comes as British scientists today revealed in a Government study that there were at least a dozen different strains circulating in the population in March.
The newer strain named G614 (blue) appeared later on in the pandemic but, since then, has dominated the older, slower-spreading strain D614 (orange) in most areas of the world. It was the only one recorded in England but all the patients sampled were taken from one city - Sheffield
Most countries outbreaks began with the older D614 strain (shown in orange). In China and Singapore this remained the dominant strain but in most countries worldwide it was edged out in March by the mutated G614 version
The study was done by scientists at the University of Sheffield and Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico, and published openly online.It focused on a mutation of the virus, officially named SARS-CoV-2, which was referred to as D614G. The researchers referred to the viruses without the mutation as D614 and the version with it as G614. It is not clear whether they classify as separate strains because the mutation is so small and affects only one tiny part of the virus. Looking at samples from around the world they found that D614 appeared to have been the virus's original state in humans, and the one found in Wuhan. It made up the vast majority of all COVID-19 infections in China, and Asia as a whole, and also seemed to be the first version of the virus to appear in the countries they studied. However, the mutated version - G614 - started to appear soon after in Europe and North America in particular, before going on to take over as the dominant virus.

LIVEProgress: 0% 0:00 Share this articleShare2.2k shares 'In most countries and states where the COVID-19 epidemic was initiated and where sequences were sampled prior to March 1, the D614 form was the dominant local form early in the epidemic. 'Wherever G614 entered a population, a rapid rise in its frequency followed, and in many cases G614 became the dominant local form in a matter of only a few weeks.' They said the G614 mutation may give the virus a 'selective advantage' which makes it better able to bind to cells in the airways, or to shed viruses which it uses to reproduce and spread. It could do this because the D614G mutation appeared to affect the shape of the 'spike' protein that the virus uses to attach to a person's cells and infect them. A sample of 447 hospital patients in Sheffield showed that people had a higher viral load when infected with G614, meaning they had a higher quantity of viruses circulating in their body. This could make them more likely to spread COVID-19 because they could be more likely to show symptoms and have more viruses on their breath, for example. The researchers wrote: 'An early April sampling... showed that G614's frequency was increasing at an alarming pace throughout March, and it was clearly showing an ever-broadening geographic spread.' And they added: 'Through March, G614 became increasingly common throughout Europe, and by April it dominated contemporary sampling. 'In North America, infections were initiated and established across the continent by the original D614 form, but in early March, the G614 was introduced into both Canada and the USA, and by the end of March it had become the dominant form in both nations.' The researchers added that the fact that the spike protein is such a key target for vaccines and medication, means that this apparent evidence it can mutate was cause for concern. If a vaccine is developed to target the virus by latching onto its spike protein, for example, that would become useless if the protein changed shape. And the same principle applies to natural immunity - if the body learns to attack viruses with a spike protein that is one shape, it may not recognise or react to a virus with one that takes a different form. Dr Jonathan Stoye, from The Francis Crick Institute, said: 'Although the functional significance of the changes observed have yet to be fully characterised, the study shows that SARS-CoV-2 can alter its genetic structure in multiple ways as it spreads around the world, a finding likely to have important implications for vaccine development.' Scientists are still not sure whether people develop long-term immunity after their first bout of COVID-19. Sir Patrick Vallance, the UK's chief scientific adviser, said it is very unlikely that people would develop total protection after recovering from the illness.

Although the older D614 strain (orange) managed to remain dominant in Asia for most of the pandemic, it was quickly superseded by the mutated version in Western countries and Africa, which started recording outbreaks later on
The Sheffield research comes as SAGE, the British Government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies, today published a paper revealing that at least a dozen strains of the coronavirus were circulating in the UK in March.It is not clear whether G614 is included in this research. The scientists who did that study used different names for the strains they studied, and the research was done earlier than the G614 study. In it, leading genetic scientists had analysed the genomes of the killer virus in 260 infected patients from all corners of the UK. They say they identified 12 unique versions of the virus, one of which has only ever been found in Britain meaning it mutated on UK soil. But the COVID-19 Genomics UK Consortium (COG-UK) said the number of strains is very likely substantially higher due to under-sampling in the UK. The scientists say most of the strains were imported from Italy and Spain, the worst-hit countries in the world at the time the research was carried out. There is no suggestion that any of the strains are any more potent or infectious than another, infectious disease experts say. Professor Paul Hunter, at the University of East Anglia, told MailOnline it is 'entirely plausible' this could happen to one of the strains if it continues to evolve. The report, made public today, was given to the Government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) in March to help them map the outbreak's spread. Other secret documents of scientific evidence that helped shape the Government's response to the crisis were released today.

New mutation of COVID-19 suggests the disease is weakening
Scientists have discovered a unique mutation to coronavirus in Arizona - and it's a pattern that they've seen before.
One of the 382 samples they collected from coronavirus patients in the state was missing a sizeable segment of genetic material. In the middle and late stages of the SARS epidemic of 2003, this very same kind of deletion started cropping up in patients around the globe. It's not just any mutation - the change robs the closely related viruses of one of their weapons against the host's immune response, making the infection weaker. As that mutation became widespread, the SARS outbreak wound down. By July - five months after it emerged in Asia in February 23 - there were no new cases, and the outbreak was considered contained. Now, Arizona State University experts have only found one person who had a version of the virus with this mutation - but they say if genome sequencing for coronavirus become more common, we may find far more. They sequenced the genomes of the virus in 382 nasal swab samples. Like ours, viral genetic material is composed of chemical units known by their letters. The human genome consists of three billion DNA 'letters'. Viral genomes are far simpler than ours, and coronavirus consists of 30,000 letters of RNA. In one of the samples they collected, the ASU researchers discovered that a massive 81 letters were missing. And these were a particularly meaningful missing 81 pieces of RNA. 'This is something we've seen before in the 2003 SARS outbreak during the middle and late phase of the outbreak, the virus acquired large deletions in these SS3 proteins,' lead study author Dr Efrem Lim told <a href="http://DailyMail.com" rel="nofollow">DailyMail.com</a>. 'These proteins are not just there to replicate - they are in there to help enhance virulence and suppress the immune system [of the host]. It evolved with a more attenuated from in the late phase of the epidemic.' In other words, the SARS virus changed to be weaker (attenuated viruses are less the less risky, modified versions researchers make in labs as the basis for vaccines) as time went on. And now, at least one sample of SARS-CoV-2 had done the same. All viruses mutate slightly as they spread through populations, which leads to small changes in their genetic material. Scientists say the virus does this to overcome immune system resistance in different communities. As part of the study, COG-UK researchers analysed patients in Belfast, Birmingham, Cambridge, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Liverpool, London, Norwich, Nottingham, Oxford and Sheffield. They found 12 unique strains, most of which had been imported from Europe. The report did not specify which countries, but said the majority of cases came from Italy. It found that strains had also come from China, the US and Australia. Professor Hunter told MailOnline: 'There are a number of issues with these strains - are they likely to cause different severity of disease? Are they likely to be more infectious? And are they capable of invalidating vaccines? 'The answer to all three of these is that we have no idea. There is no suggestion from this study - or any other that I have read - that show these strains are more virulent or infectious that one another. 'But it is plausible that one strain could mutate to the point where people with antibodies to an older strain are no longer immune to it. 'These are called escape mutants, because they escape from the control of immunity. 'It happens with influenza a lot. The current coronavirus does not seem to do this as fast, though, but it is plausible down the line.' Professor Hunter said the main value of the report was that it helps scientists track the spread of the infection around the UK. He said this would become crucial when easing out of lockdown. Professor Hunter added: 'This enables researchers to continue to track where its going and help enforce new rules to stop another outbreak. 'Say you have a cluster in the north west of England, which is unexpected, and it is the same strain found predominantly in London, then you could see that is must've been spread by someone travelling from the capital. 'You could use this to tell if someone had broken lockdown rules by travelling there, or you could close down a possible transmission passage [a train line, for example].'

The COG-UK is an innovative partnership of NHS organisations, the four Public Health Agencies of the UK, the Wellcome Sanger Institute and more than 12 academic institutions, including Cambridge University.It is supported by £20million funding from the UK Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and the Wellcome Trust. Coronavirus has mutated to become deadlier in Europe, Chinese study claims
There could be as many as 30 different strains of coronavirus, a study of patients in China has claimed.
Zhejiang University scientists studied a small number of patients with the disease and uncovered tens of mutations - 19 of which had never been seen before. Some mutations boosted the virus' ability to invade cells in the body, others helped the disease multiply more rapidly. The most deadly strains were genetically similar to the ones that spread in Europe and in New York, reported the South China Morning Post. Meanwhile, the weaker strains were similar to those found circulating within other parts of the US, such as Washington State. The authors say their findings - based on just 11 patients - are the first to show the mutation could affect the severity of illness. They believe the previously unreported mutations could be the reason behind Europe and New York's devastating death tolls. It is still unclear why the aggressive strain of COVID-19 spread to Europe and the more mild version hit large swathes of the US. But scientists say viruses are constantly mutating to overcome immune system resistance in different populations. It comes on the heels of studies that claim the US was hit by two different clusters of the coronavirus, with type A dominating the West Coast and the deadlier type B in New York. Experts say the type A outbreak was spread to the US from China, where as the crisis in New York likely came from Europe - which was also rocked by type B. For the latest study, published on the pre-print service medRxiv.org, the team analyzed viral strains from 11 Chinese coronavirus patients. The team, conducted by Professor Li Lanjuan and colleagues, tested how effectively the virus could infect and kill human cells in the laboratory. Viral load - the amount of the virus - was assessed in all the cells after one, two, four and eight hours, as well as the next day and 48 hours later. And the experts also looked at the cytopathic effects - whether the virus structurally changed the cell during infection - up to three days after the experiment. The most aggressive strains created up to 270 times as much viral load as the least potent type, according to the results. And the strains that produced the highest viral load led to a 'higher cell death ratio', Professor Li and her team revealed. Writing in their paper, the team said: 'Our results show the observed mutations can have a direct impact on the viral load and CPE. 'This finding suggests the observed mutations in our study... can significantly impact the pathogenicity (the ability to cause disease) of SARS-CoV-2.' The team found some of the deadliest mutations in Zhejiang, where the university is located. These mutations had also been seen in several hard-hit European countries such as Italy and Spain - before spreading to the US epicenter New York. However, some of the milder mutations were the varieties largely found in the US, including Washington state, which could be the strain that shut down Wuhan, where the virus originated. But the scientists admitted that the 'full mutational diversity of the virus in Wuhan in the early days is still unknown'. The occupants of three flights from the outbreak ground zero in the Chinese city of Wuhan and another bringing home passengers from a cruise ship of Japan were the only ones taken to secure facilities in the UK. But millions more entering the UK between the start of 2020 and March 22 were able to enter freely and only advised to self-isolate, according to figures obtained by the Guardian. It came as it also emerged the UK suffered a 'big influx' of coronavirus from arrivals from Italy and Spain who were not quarantined. Mapping of the Covid-19 genome shows that UK cases come from all over the world, chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance told MPs. But a large number of cases in early March were from Europe and 'seeded right the way across the country' because Brits arriving back in the UK were allowed to return home. Giving evidence to the Health and Social Care Committee this morning, Sir Patrick said that experts on the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) had advised ministers they would have to be 'extremely draconian' in blocking travel from whole countries otherwise 'it really was not worth trying to do it.' 'Whether that was people returning from half-term, whether it is business travellers or not, we dont know,' he told MPs. 'But a lot of the cases in the UK didnt come from China and didn't come from the places you might have expected. 'They actually came from European imports and the high level of travel into the UK around that time.' At the weekend a senior minister finally confirmed visitors to the UK could face time in quarantine as the Government 'actively' considers stronger anti-coronavirus measures at the borders. Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said that new arrivals could also be forced to download a new contract app onto their smartphone as a condition of entry. New restrictions would make the UK one of the last countries to introduce them, with the country very much an outlier in recent weeks by not halting inbound flights or insisting arrivals are checked. People arriving are currently advised to self-isolate but there is no enforced testing. Home Secretary Priti Patel is believed to be among those who have demanded tougher rules for foreign visitors and the remaining Brits still abroad who make it home. But Sir Patrick suggested stopping travel was of limited use unless action was taken against a wide-range of countries. 'What was very clear, and I think you can see this now in retrospect, is that the idea that you can control this by stopping travel from one place doesnt work unless it is of course the only source of import,' he said this morning. 'We have now in the UK sequenced 13,6000 viral genomes, we got imports from all over the place. 'So quite early on the advice Sage gave was ''if you are going to do something on travel you either need to be extremely draconian - stop all travel from all sorts of countries - or it is really not worth trying to do it, trying to stop from one place because you wont make it happen''. 'So I think the answer is not, unless the country chose to do that, stopping travel anywhere and to make sure that as people come back you have appropriate systems to isolate and make sure they are following the same rules as the rest of the country.' Deputy chief medical officer Dr Jenny Harries, who was also giving evidence, added: 'There are pros and cons which are not necessarily always obvious I think, between managing influx and outflux of passengers but also goods. 'If you shut travel routes in, you are also shutting routes for various products which may be essential, not just for our population but all around the world. 'At the moment most people who are coming back are coming back into the UK back home and they will immediately fall under social distancing regulations anyway.'

| Was coronavirus spreading in Europe last year? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Coronavirus. A word so familiar to us all, it's almost lost its meaning, except for the fact that it has changed our lives so drastically.
But when did this new strain of coronavirus begin to take hold? In January, the novel coronavirus was very much a foreign story, as it spread out from the Chinese city of Wuhan. The first death was recorded in Wuhan on 11 January, the first death outside China occurring two days later in Thailand, one week later, the first US case of infection; in Washington. Until now, the first human-to-human transmission within Europe was thought to have been a German man that was infected by a Chinese colleague who visited Germany between 19 and 22 January. But what if coronavirus was already spreading across the world as early as December? What would be the significance of an earlier spread of the disease? Were many more people infected in those early days when the world thought it was just a problem for China? On 3 May, medics working at a Paris hospital announced that they had discovered that a patient they treated last December for flu-like symptoms had actually had COVID-19.  French researchers led by Yves Cohen, head of resuscitation at the Avicenne and Jean Verdier hospitals, retested samples from 24 patients treated in December and January who had tested negative for flu. The results, published in the International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, showed that one patient - a 42-year-old man born in Algeria, who had lived in France for many years - was infected with COVID-19 "one month before the first reported cases in our country". Speaking to local station, BFMTV, Amirouche Hammar described the days before he went to hospital. The resident of the Bobigny suburb of Paris described his symptoms: dry cough, fever, fatigue and serious trouble breathing. At first, the now 43-year-old says he thought it was the flu, but after several days of feeling ill, he went to the emergency department on 27 December. This was the end of 2019 when the virus had apparently only affected China. On 31 December, China alerted the World Health Organisation about several cases of an unusual pneumonia in Wuhan with unknown cause. Three days later, 44 patients were reported to the WHO, which made an announcement on social media the following day. The medical team which treated Mr. Hammar were faced with a quandary when it came to diagnosing the father of four. Eventually, they declared a pulmonary infection. It wasnt until May, however, that Mr Hammar learned that he had actually been infected by the infamous coronavirus. The 43-year-old was contacted by Professor Yves Cohen to tell him that a swab taken from him in December had tested positive for Covid-19. How did Covid-19 show up in a patient in Paris when it hadnt officially been declared in China? Speaking to the BBC, Professor Cohen says they looked at whether the patient had any links to China, which he hadnt. His wife works at a fish-counter in a supermarket, but it doesn't sell any fish from China. However, the team discovered that she works in close proximity to a sushi counter staffed by a number of Asian employees. The team queried whether she might have contracted it from someone who had travelled to China and brought it home while remaining asymptomatic. Speaking to BFMTV, Fatiha Hammar put forward another theory. The supermarket where she works is near Charles de Gaulle Airport and is frequented by people who come directly from the airport with their suitcases. She wondered whether that was another possible source of infection. What does this tell us about the virus? Simply that it could have originated in France back in December, which is important. But do we know whether it means that the French case is not linked to Wuhan? Professor Cohen says its too early to tell. If further investigations find a link with the sushi-counter staff, then a connection to Wuhan could be definitively found. This virus sample will be examined to see if it's got a similar genomic sequence to those in Wuhan. If not, it would point to other contamination sources worldwide, which would complicate the search for a vaccine, because wed be dealing with other types of virus. While news of a potential "patient zero" in France has sparked much interest, experts advise caution, and further investigation. Virologist at Queens University Belfast, Dr Lindsay Broadbent, says if it is true, it does change the timeline for transmission across Europe, but she advises treating the discovery with caution. "The type of test used to diagnose Covid-19 is an incredibly sensitive test, and contamination can occur very easily." Why would such a discovery be important, if it is true? Dr Broadbent says it doesnt change our current situation, but it would change the accepted timeline of the virus quite drastically. Back in January, "we thought we needed to have contact with someone that had been to a severely affected area, such as Wuhan, and this would change that," because Mr Hamman had not been to China, or indeed travelled abroad for months. "It may also affect how many people within the community have been infected. We know that an awful lot of these people are asymptomatic...and may never have been tested, or requested a test. So, it might mean a lot more people have had this virus than we think." Why is that so important? Well, for one, it changes what we perceive as the death rate from the disease. If many more people had the illness than we thought, and the number of deaths that are recorded stays the same, then the proportion of deaths from Covid-19 shrinks. It also raises questions about immunity in those who have contracted and recovered from the virus. But its not yet clear how long that immunity lasts, according to Dr Broadbent: "There is some good evidence starting to emerge that we will be immune for certainly a short time at least. Whether that lasts several months to a year, we dont know yet. But it does look like the majority of people who are infected do produce antibodies against the virus which is very good news." Other experts have also weighed in on the French study. "It's not impossible that it was an early introduction, but the evidence isn't conclusive by any means," said Jonathan Ball, a professor of molecular virology at Britain's University of Nottingham. Stephen Griffin, an expert at the University of Leeds' Institute of Medical Research, said it was "a potentially important finding," but added: "We must be cautious when interpreting these findings." Rowland Kao, a professor of veterinary epidemiology and data science at Edinburgh University, said that even if it were confirmed, the identification of a positive Covid-19 in December "is not necessarily an indication that the spread of Covid-19 from France started this early". "If confirmed, what this case does highlight is the speed at which an infection starting in a seemingly remote part of the world can quickly seed infections elsewhere," he said.  France is not the only country to re-examine its timeline of the spread of coronavirus. Britain has also been looking for clues as to the source of its outbreak, now seen as the worst in Europe, based on the number of deaths from Covid-19. However, it is important to point out that different countries have different ways of counting fatalities, so comparisons arent always worthwhile. On Tuesday, 5 May, Britains chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, told MPs that genome sequencing suggests that the UK got many of its coronavirus cases from Europe, rather than China. "One of the things that it looks like, very clearly, is that early in March the UK got many, many different imports of virus from many different places," he said. "And those places were particularly from European countries with outbreaks. "And so we see a big influx of cases, probably from Italy and Spain, looking at the genomics of the virus in early March, seeded right the way across the country, and so whether that was people returning from half-term, whether it's business travellers or not we don't know, but a lot of the cases in the UK didn't come from China and didn't come from the places you might have expected. "They actually came from European imports and the high level of travel into the UK around that time." Questions have been raised about a Champions League match with Atletico Madrid in Liverpool in March and whether it increased the spread of coronavirus in the city. Liverpool and the greater region have suffered disproportionately from coronavirus. On 11 March, 3,000 fans travelled from Madrid for the clash with Liverpool, at a time when they were not permitted to watch their own team play at home, as all La Liga matches were ordered to be played behind closed doors, without fans present. Local reports quote public health experts in the city who believe there is a high chance that the surge in cases in the city may have been added to by the Champions League match. Liverpools Mayor Joe Anderson has now asked his public health team to carry out a full investigation to see if there is any connection after a number of deaths were blamed on the match. Scientists in the US are also investigating hidden outbreaks of Covid-19 before the official "first" case was declared on 21 January. According to Alessandro Vespignani, a professor at Northeastern University in Boston, the novel coronavirus was already circulating in major US cities in January. Vespignani and his colleagues used a model to predict the global spread of the virus, based on the infection dynamics of the virus as well as human patterns of movement and interaction. According to research published by the group in March, by the time that China implemented containment measures in Wuhan on 21 January, and the US issued travel restrictions on those travelling to the US ten days later, it was already too late, the virus had spread. Vespignani says the guidelines at the time were only to test people with a travel history to China, so if the virus was circulating in large cities, people could present with symptoms and not be tested, if they hadnt travelled to China but caught it from someone who had. Add to that the fact that January is the height of flu season, and you could get a critical mass of infections going undetected. "If I have an epidemic that starts in early January, I can project a certain trajectory; if I have an epidemic that starts in early March, everything is shifted by two months"But why is this important? According to Professor Vespignani, understanding the timeline of infections can help researchers make predictions about how it will progress. "If I have an epidemic that starts in early January, I can project a certain trajectory; if I have an epidemic that starts in early March, everything is shifted by two months," Vespignani says. "Thats an infinite time for a disease like this one. So you really want to be as sharp as possible, down to the level of a single week, to have the right timeline now to inform what we will see in the next weeks or months." Again, Dr Broadbent advises a degree of caution with the new research from the US, saying that until we have solid data, its just a hypothesis. However, she says the French study does show that it would be a good idea for countries to go back to samples from patients from December, and test them again in a very systematic way for Covid-19. Commenting on the possibility of a new 'patient zero in France in December, the WHO said more information is needed to ascertain the truth in these cases. Maria van Kerkhove, technical lead of WHO's Health Emergencies Program, said: "in this paper, the authors themselves say that it could be a false positive, but assuming it's not, it is possible that this individual may have had Covid-19 in December. "This was about a month before the first case were reported in France. We need more information about this particular case, if this is the case, to find out the different type of history that this individual may have had. It is possible that there could have been a case in France as early as December." She added that currently more than 100 countries and regions have surveillance systems for influenza. "If a sample from January or even December of last year is tested, it may turn out to be positive for Covid-19 and we need to understand how and why this is possible." Meanwhile, Michael Ryan, Executive Director of WHO Health Emergencies Program, added that researchers around the world need to conduct more examinations to find similar cases. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

 Russian spies used French Alps 'as a base camp for covert operations' https://mol.im/a/7765673 via
@MailOnline_______________________________________________________________________________________________
I reviewed the graphs at this page: New cases of covid-19 by countries and regions - Google Search My impressions are that they can be divided in the three patterns of waves. 1. Preliminary: China, South Korea, etc. which appears to be more of the out-layer. I have my ideas why it is so but will let you to do your guessing. 2. Primary wave: most of the Western Europe: Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the U.S. The number of the new cases appears to rise by the mid-March, the Ides of March, and to peak at approximately the early April, around the April 1, the Fools Day. 3. Secondary or late wave: Russia, Mexico, etc. UK pattern looks more like in between the primary and secondary waves, with the intensity unabating, so far. It is possible that the intentional deliberate introduction and spread of infection continues there, for certain reasons. These patterns have to be studied further. By now it is practically indisputable, that the Pandemic started in October of 2019. The origins of the pathogen, designated as the Sars-Cov-2 remain unclear, and the lab manipulation explanation appears more plausible to me than the "zoonotic jump". Let the specialists work on it. My idea regarding emergence remains the same: Munich Oktoberfest. The details have to be researched. In this type of the investigation the Medical part and the Criminological - Intelligence work part appear to be inseparable and the closely knit parts of the same package. The Preliminary Asian wave was probably introduced first as the cover and to mislead the management of the Pandemic and its investigations, and it might be somewhat different from the main Primary European wave.
