WHO: Covid-19 came from an animal, not a laboratory
Covid-19 was probably transmitted to people through an animal and is believed to have begun to spread between one or two months before it was detected in December 2019. This is established in the draft of the final report of the investigation on virus made by the World Health Organization.
The report also states that the least likely source of the virus is a laboratory.
Hours earlier, one of the organization's international experts who visited Wuhan said that the wildlife trade in China is the most likely route through which covid-19 could spread from the original animal source, possibly bats, to the humans.

Effects of chaos in the Suez Canal will be felt in the coming months
Although the ship that blocked the Suez Canal was freed for almost a week, the effects of the chaos are far from over.
Especially for companies that depend on timely deliveries of raw materials, parts and products.
Even before the Ever Given ship ran aground, supply chains had been stretched to the limit.
There are now more than 360 ships waiting to use the canal.
As traffic begins to move again, it will take days to fix the delay, further affecting the delivery time of products on their way to customers.
Impacts of the blockade on the Suez Canal just begin 2:47
