COVID-19: New WHO team may be 'last chance' to understand origins of coronavirus

A newly formed World Health Organisation (WHO) team may be 'our last chance' to understand the origins of coronavirus, the body's top emergency expert has said. The WHO has named 26 proposed members of its Scientific Advisory Group on the Origins of Novel Pathogens (SAGO), to determine the origins of coronavirus. Maria Van Kerkhove, WHO technical lead on COVID-19, said she hoped there would be further WHO-led international missions to China to encourage the country to cooperate.
