This creature is responsible for the corona virus, not snakes or bats

Wuhan, 13 February 2020 Thursday

The outbreak of the Corona virus outbreak in China has so far killed more than 900 people. Scientists are working to find out which animal the disease came from. But nothing has been cleared yet.

Some Chinese scientists say that the corona virus in humans has been transmitted by Pangolin, an ant. Scientists say that the DNA of the corona virus found in humans matches 99% of the DNA found in the pangolin.

Earlier, some scientists claimed that the corona virus had penetrated humans with bats. But these claims could not be proved

Scientists at China's South China Agricultural University have claimed that pangolin is a possible means of spreading the corona virus. The virus came from a bat into a pangolin and went into humans. This new information can play a major role in detecting and preventing the origin of the corona virus. But research found that only less than 80 percent of the DNA of the bats was matched.

Corona virus spreads in Wuhan seafood market

It is being reported that the Corona virus was transmitted to the seafood market in Wuhan, China. According to a report, many types of animals are sold in this market. These included animals such as pangolin, blooms, snakes, deer, squirrels, foxes, frogs, turtles, crocodiles, ducks, bats. The market has been closed following the outbreak of the Corona virus.

The most smuggled pangolin

According to National Geographic Magazine, the world's largest smuggler is Pangolin. About one lakh pangolins are smuggled every year. In countries like China and Vietnam, pangolin meat is consumed a lot. In China, there is a 10-year sentence found for selling pangolin. Yet every year, China suffers from thousands of pangolins.

An NGO called the China Biodiversity and Green Development Foundation says that more than 200 pharmaceutical companies in China make 60 types of drugs from pangolin. One kilogram of pangolin sculpture costs $ 4400, which is Rs 3.14 lakh.

What animal is a pangolin?

The pangolin, in fact, is becoming a rarity worldwide. It is a mammalian wildlife, which is quite different and strange in appearance to other mammals. Whose body is covered with a rigid and strong shield made of carotene, like the bark of a palm tree.

Looking from a distance it looks like a small dinosaur. Pangolin eats insects and mites. Chinese researchers say the corona virus is likely to have entered the human body after a person ate the animal.

The virus cannot spread with bats

Scientists claim that the Corona virus has come from bats. But it is very unlikely that the virus can spread to the body. However, a man is more likely to get a virus from a pangolin.

However, until now, this Chinese invention has not been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO). But it is hoped that if this research claim is proved, then the virus can succeed in vaccinating it.
