彭博社报道,美国早在去年的年底,新冠就开始大规模悄悄流行
美国彭博社报道,美国从去年12月13日到今年1月17日红十字7389个献血样本里,发现了106例新冠病毒。从数字上看,每一千人,就有14个人被感染。显然,在武汉爆发前,新冠就已经在美国悄悄地大规模流行: 6park.comhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-12-01/covid-infections-found-in-u-s-in-2019-weeks-before-china-cases 6park.comU.S. Covid Cases Found as Early as December 2019, Says StudyBloomberg News December 1, 2020, 3:36 AM EST Updated on December 1, 2020, 3:44 AM EST
Testing has found Covid-19 infections in the U.S. in December 2019, according to a study, providing further evidence indicating the coronavirus was spreading globally weeks before the first cases were reported in China. 6park.com The study published Monday identified 106 infections from 7,389 blood samples collected from donors in nine U.S. states between Dec. 13 and Jan. 17. The samples, collected by the American Red Cross, were sent to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for testing to detect if there were antibodies against the virus. 6park.com “The findings of this report suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infections may have been present in the U.S. in December 2019, earlier than previously recognized,” the paper said. 6park.com Reports of a mysterious pneumonia spreading in Wuhan, China, first emerged in late December 2019. After multiplying rapidly throughout the city in the following weeks, the disease spread across the globe, with the first U.S. case emerging on Jan. 19.
The revelations in the paper by researchers from the CDC reinforce the growing understanding that the coronavirus was silently circulating worldwide earlier than known, and could re-ignite debate over the origins of the pandemic. 6park.comIt’s not the first evidence showing the virus could have existed or infected people outside China before 2020. A patient in France was found to have contracted the virus after being hospitalized with flu-like symptoms at the end of December, contradicting official statistics showing Covid-19 reached the country from people returning from Wuhan at the end of January.
