New York: The first known symptomatic case of COVID-19 was of a female seafood vendor at a wholesale food market in Wuhan, China. Until now it was believed that the virus was first found in an accountant in Wuhan. A new study has suggested that the initial chronology related to the World Health Organization’s investigation into the origin of the deadly disease may be proved wrong. The study report, published on Thursday in the New York Times, said the first patient worked at the Huanan animal market in the central Chinese city of Wuhan.
The first case of corona was found in Wuhan
Let us tell you that the city of Wuhan is the place where the corona virus first appeared in 2019 which turned into an epidemic. In the study, published Thursday in the journal Science, Michael Vorobey, chief of ecology and developmental biology at the University of Arizona, said the accountant, widely believed to be the first person with COVID-19, said his first symptoms appeared on December 16. .
‘Vorobe’s investigation is good’
“Her (accountant’s) symptoms emerged after several cases involving people working in Huanan market, where the case involving a female seafood vendor became the first known case with the onset of the disease on December 11,” the study said. ‘ Several experts, including one of the WHO-selected pandemic investigators, said Vorobey’s investigation was doing well and that the first known case of Kovid could most likely be a case of a seafood vendor.
The first case was told to the matter related to the accountant
In January, researchers selected by the WHO visited China and spoke to an accountant who developed symptoms of the coronavirus in December. The accountant-related case was the first known case reported by these researchers in March 2021.
