It’s been almost three years since the corona virus arrived, but where did it come from? At present, the World Health Organization (WHO) has not got anything clear about this. A special group set up by the WHO to help trace the origin of the pandemic has said that more study is needed.
The group said that the theory of the virus leaking from the laboratory should be studied in more detail. The group’s stance differs from the WHO’s initial assessment of the origins of the pandemic.
The WHO Special Group said in a report released on Thursday that the main data to explain how the epidemic originated is still not available. According to the scientists, the group will “retain all scientific evidence that may become available in the future, taking into account the comprehensive testing of all reasonable hypotheses.”
The group said that since cases of spread of diseases from the lab have been reported in the past, this theory cannot be ignored. In fact, last year the WHO came to the conclusion that there is a “highly low probability” that COVID-19 was transmitted from a lab to humans.

India’s first COVID vaccine developed for animals has arrived: Meanwhile, Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar on Thursday released the country’s first anti-COVID vaccine ‘Anokovax’ developed for animals. This vaccine has been prepared by ICAR-National Research Center on Equines (NRC) based in Haryana.
The Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) said in a statement that enokovax is an inactivated SARS-Cov-2 delta (Covid-19) vaccine for animals and that the immunity from enokovax can protect both the delta and omicron forms of SARS-Cov-2. Ineffective. The vaccine contains inactivated SARS-Cov-2 (Delta) antigen with alhydrogel as an adjuvant and is safe for dogs, lions, leopards, rats and rabbits.
Tomar, after digitally releasing the vaccines and diagnostic kits developed by ICAR-NRC for animals, said, “The country is self-sufficient in developing its own vaccines instead of importing them due to the tireless contribution of scientists. It is indeed a great achievement.” ICAR is the premier agricultural research institute of the country which works under the Union Ministry of Agriculture.
