Please. Molecular biologists have sequenced the genome of the virus and can trace the minute variations to the time and place of the very first human infections. That place is Wuhan China and currently the earliest date so far is November 17, 2019. China did not alert the world that the virus was passing human to human until January 21, 2019. They locked down Wuhan January 23 but by then, 7 million people, many already infected, had already traveled throughout China and all over the world. See NYT video below. The only thing we "don't know" is whether the virus jumped from animal to human at a Wuhan wet market or if an accidental release or infection occurred at the Wuhan virus lab. WE will find out.
