Michael Novakhov – SharedNewsLinks℠: 9:42 AM 6/27/2020 – SARS-CoV-2 has been evolving for at least 7 years: "We used detailed phylogenetic analysis, ancestral sequence reconstruction, and molecular dynamics simulations to examine the Spike-RBD’s functional evolution, finding to our surprise that it has likely possessed high affinity for human cell targets since at least 2013."
