A lot of speculation and unfounded hypotheses are circulating regarding the origins of SARS-Cov-2, the virus which causes COVID-19. This has unfortunately led to many different actors attempting to disrupt the coverage of this subject here on Wikipedia, by citing poor sources or basing their coverage on newspapers. I will here endeavour to make a thorough inquest through existing research papers on the matter, to have a readily accessible annotated list which will allow to see what scientists say on the matter and to guide further discussions on the topic.

Methodology

Papers were keyword searched through the databases of PUBMED and some leading publishers. Papers in journals which are not MEDLINE-indexed were not further investigated. Relevant papers were selected after reading the abstract and looking at the depth of coverage on the issue. Preference was given to reviews and papers from virologists in relevant journals.

Total: 877 matching queries, 187 total selected, 16 from other sources (before removing all duplicates)

Work in progress

Criteria:

• Checking whether a journal is MEDLINE or not is simple enough. Clicking on the journal name (in PubMed) should allow directly viewing the journal in the NLM catalog (ex. [1]), where the relevant information should be easily retrievable.
• An article cited by 10 or less other articles is "relatively few" Y; although some caution when interpreting this should be given in regards to more recent articles. High-impact articles (cited by a 100 or more others) should be given an approximate count (rounded down) to highlight these. For consistency, numbers should be retrieved from the same source (PubMed), but this shouldn't be much of a factor for articles with a high amount of citations.
• Author credibility is usually verifiable from the affiliations listed in the author list of the article, but if in doubt, it is always better to verify at the page of the named institution(s).

  • MEDLINE: only articles related to space life sciences Not sure [this might more be indicative of a topic restriction of MEDLINE than of the reliability of the other articles] - Journal is amongst the top journals in its field (Ecology, Evolutionary biology, ...) for impact factor, so appears credible nonetheless

  • Credible authors: Bioinformatics Research Center (UNC Charlotte), first author is specialised in bioinformatics and phylogenetics.
  • Comment: * Appears to be a primary study about an analysis of the title subject.
  • Quotes: "A recent literature review of the zoonotic origins of HCoVs (Ye et al., 2020) describes that the fundamental hosts of HCoVs can be Rodentia (for HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-HKU1) or Chiroptera (for HCoV-NL63, HCoV-229E, SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2). According to Ye et al. (2020), data on intermediate hosts of HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-HKU1 are absent. Furthermore, Ye et al. (2020) also point out that there is an open debate about the existence of intermediate hosts of HCoV-229E and SARS-CoV-2."; "Current public data indicate that the key epidemiological event in the history of SARS-CoV-2 was that a Chiroptera-hosted lineage of viruses infected an urban human population in Wuhan, China (Zhao et al., 2020) and this is perhaps linked to earlier infections in rural populations (Wang et al., 2018)."; "Other strategies, more speculative than those listed above, have been used to suggest that SARS-CoV-2 came from a laboratory accident at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (Rogin, 2020). The evidence indicates that SARS-CoV-2 was not purposefully manipulated (Andersen et al., 2020). Moreover, the notion that the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic resulted from a laboratory accident at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (Rogin, 2020) is not necessary to explain the pandemic."
  • Summary: Available literature shows multiple precedents for zoonotic transmission of HCoVs (human coronaviruses). Available evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 spread from Wuhan, although that might not be the actual origin. Speculation, such as claims of a lab leak, are not supported by evidence and are not needed to explain the emergence of the pandemic.

  • Comment: * "a few scientists believe that SARS-CoV-2 emerged through laboratory manipulations of SARS-CoV-like coronaviruses. The RBD of SARS-CoV-2 is optimized for binding ACE-2, which is distinct from other coronaviruses. However, the genetic data on SARS-CoV-2 does not show any evidence of a laboratory origin.... Most researchers agree that bats or pangolins are the primary reservoirs of coronaviruses, but the transmission route of SARS-CoV-2 to humans from this primary reservoir is still under study"

  • Comment: * dated source from Guangdong authors. Pretty typical origin explanation for early 2020. Based on virus genome sequencing results and evolutionary analysis, bat has been suspected as natural host of virus origin, and SARS-CoV-2 might be transmitted from bats via unknown intermediate hosts to infect humans. It is clear now that SARS-CoV-2 could use angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), the same receptor as SARS-CoV, to infect humans... Direct contact with intermediate host animals or consumption of wild animals was suspected to be the main route of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. However, the source(s) and transmission routine(s) of SARS-CoV-2 remain elusive.

  • Summary: Despite multiple barriers to transmission, zoonoses are a major cause of the emergence of new human pathogens. The paper describes an example of reverse zoonosis, zoo animals being infected by SARS-CoV-2 from contact with humans. The paper describes the origin of the virus as a likely zoonotic event, since genome analysis has shown SARS-CoV-2 to be closely related to existing bat viruses, describing horseshoe bats as the likely reservoir where the virus might have circulated for decades without detection. While zoonotic origin is presented as a likely or "suspected" event, no alternative hypotheses are mentioned.

  • Comment: Although early in the pandemic, it puts forwards reasonable doubts about some specifics, including the lack of evidence for the pangolin as an intermediary host. Concludes discussion about SARS-CoV-2 by stating that "the jury is still out on the immediate zoonotic origin of SARS-CoV-2.", but overall comes off as highly confident in a zoonotic origin being a matter of fact (not even under debate), with other hypotheses not even mentioned.
