am blown away by the premonition captured by a 2015 Nature Medicine paper, “A SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence.” Not surprisingly, multiple authors on the manuscript were based in Wuhan, China. This may or may not have been a precursor to SARS-CoV-2, but we should have been more prepared. If you ask what we could have done, there is so much that it’s painful to even start.
