A team of French scientists and doctors has claimed that the first case of corona virus in Europe did not occur in January. It came two months before that but doctors could not understand the disease and its symptoms at that time. If this claim proves to be true, the world's attention may shift from China and Wuhan to France.
CoronavirusAccording to French doctors, the first case in Europe came on November 16, 2019 in Colmar, France. From November to December, more than 2,500 people came to a hospital in the northeastern French city to report flu. The doctors examined the X-ray reports of all these people.
Of these, only two reported confirmation of coronavirus infection. At the time, however, doctors did not know the cause of the disease and its symptoms, so it was not recorded.
Michael Schmidt, a doctor at Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Colmar, and his team have claimed that the claims that have so far been considered zero in European countries could be disproved.
CoronavirusThe team claims that this may not be the first case of corona in China, as the infection has already hit Europe by November. France reported its first case on January 24. The city of Wuhan in China is believed to be responsible for the spread of the corona virus around the world.
The Chinese government reported the corona infection to the world on December 31, 2019, but the news of the corona infection was confirmed on January 7, 2020. US intelligence agencies had claimed that the corona virus had spread in Wuhan in November.
Dr. Vin Gupta, a pulmonologist at the University of Washington, said that he had read Dr. Schmidt's report. The symptoms of the early corona virus may have been similar to those seen in X-rays of two patients before China.
