There is an important pre-print (https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.23.517609v1) from Jiang Wang et al., about how common #viral #recombination is in bats; which has direct implications on the #originsofcovid as well as future #pandemic #prevention.

Gonna talk to one of the senior authors on the #preprint about this work; if you want me to ask any questions; you can post them as reply or DM here.

Furthermore. unless you want to imply a deliberate leak, the question is not that crucial. More crucial: 1. to acknowledge that viruses cross from species to species 2. what we do to minimise that 3. how we to prepare to cope with it.
