ABSTRACT

Every time a pandemic occurs, dozens of theories emerge to attribute the origin of the event to different facts. The COVID-19 pandemic that has hit virtually all the globe has been no exception.
What is known so far about the origin of the virus that causes COVID-19? The first investigations on the origin of this disease have determined that it is a new type of virus, the origin of which is most likely zoonotic.
