WHO mission to China fails to identify source of coronavirus
BEIJING: The World Health Organization mission to China to uncover the origins of the coronavirus has failed to identify the animal source.

Head of the China team Liang Wannian told newsmen that while transmission from animals can be the likely route, so far the reservoir hosts remain to be identified.
He also said there is no indication the sickness was in circulation in Wuhan before December 2019 when the first official cases have been recorded.
