Tests have confirmed that the coronavirus outbreak started from the Huanan Seafood Market, which is located in Wuhan, China.

Experts from the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention have said that the virus was first transmitted to humans after an animal carrying the virus was consumed.

The Huanan Seafood Market was selling snakes, beavers, rats, beavers, wolf cubs, koalas, and many more animals before the outbreak.

In a report that was published by the Xinhua news agency, the Chinese Centre for Disease Control said, “Thirty-one of the 33 positive samples were collected from the western zone of the market, where booths of wildlife trading concentrated.”

The CDC added, “The result suggests that the novel coronavirus outbreak is highly relevant to the trading of wild animals.”

Gao Fu, the director of the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, blamed the seafood market for the spreading of the killer illness.

In a statement that was released by Fu, he said, “The origin of the new coronavirus is the wildlife sold illegally in a Wuhan seafood market.”

It is reported that the coronavirus is adapting and mutating against the medicines that we currently have.

On January 1, 2020, the Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan, China, was shut down for environmental sanitation and disinfection.

As of now, at least 132 people have died in China from the coronavirus outbreak.

The virus has been officially called the 2019 novel coronavirus’ (2019-nCoV).

The death toll in China reaches 132, and the number of confirmed cases there nears 6,000.

On January 27, the official numbers were at 2835.
