Where Do New Viruses Come From?

Join us on   / statedclearly   While the origin of the new Coronavirus is not yet known, we do know where new viruses normally come from. Hint: Darwin's theory of evolution is full of clues! In this animation you will get a crash course in virology. You'll learn how viruses differ from other microbes, why most viruses can only infect one type of host organism, and how viruses evolve to infect new hosts. For more information on evolution, visit https://www.statedclearly.com/ For more information on the idea that this virus may have come from a lab, see our article here: https://www.statedclearly.com/article... For an excellent and accurate Q&A about the coronavirus, including things about how it is treated and how to stay safe, see this video by Dr. Ines Dawson. It's long but don't worry, in the video description she has a table of contents.

COVID-19 is the name of the disease it causes. The virus itself is called SARS CoV 2. Thanks to YouTube user "Charles Starbuck" for pointing out the error.
