researchers have said that the coronavirus could adapt to the human body eight years ago – in 2012. To such conclusion came the biologist Allison Wilson and virologist Jonathan Latham, according to the Sun.

According to new data, treated miners from the Chinese province of Yunnan, which is about 1700 kilometers from Wuhan, the doctor found “alarming symptoms” of the workers.

In that period, men within two weeks cleared the mine from waste products of bats. Then workers recorded characteristic COVID-19 dry cough, pain in the limbs, fever and finally pneumonia. Three men died.

According to the newspaper, the doctor sent the tissue samples of infected miners in a laboratory in Wuhan, and already there could “leak virus”.

This is another version of the appearance of coronavirus, but has not proved its origin.
