On the 9th local time, the National Tumor Research Institute of Milan, Italy, issued a press release stating that they provided the WHO with blood samples containing antibodies to the new crown virus collected in 2019.

The communiqué stated that the blood samples submitted for inspection were collected between October and December 2019

Research says that the new crown virus may have been concerned about spreading in September 2019

In November 2020, researchers from the National Tumor Research Institute of Milan, Italy and other institutions published a paper in the country’s “Journal of Oncology” saying that they tested the health of 959 volunteers who participated in the tumor screening test from September 2019 to March 2020.

The first author of the paper, Giovanni Apolone, said that the presence of this antibody in the blood samples of four volunteers collected in the first week of October 2019 indicates that they are likely to have been infected with the new coronavirus in September 2019

More research findings rewrite the timeline of the new crown epidemic

The most scientific way to trace the source of the new coronavirus is to find clues related to the origin of the virus as much as possible and expand virus tracking research in order to obtain accurate information

In January of this year, researchers from the University of Milan, Italy, reported in the British Journal of Dermatology that they found the new coronavirus gene sequence from a biopsy sample of a young female patient with skin disease in Italy on November 10, 2019

In December last year, another group of researchers from the University of Milan reported in the US "Journal of New Infectious Diseases" that a 4-year-old boy's oropharyngeal swab sample collected on December 5, 2019 tested positive for the new crown virus

In November last year, researchers from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported in the bimonthly issue of Clinical Infectious Diseases that they tested 7,389 blood samples collected by the American Red Cross between December 13, 2019 and January 17, 2020.

Not only have clues to earlier new coronavirus infections found in humans, research on wastewater has also shown that the new coronavirus may already exist

The University of Barcelona in Spain issued a communiqué in June last year that a research team at the school found that a wastewater sample collected on March 12, 2019 tested positive for the new coronavirus nucleic acid, but the virus level was very low

The Federal University of Santa Catarina in Brazil published a research report in July last year that the research team detected the genetic material of the new coronavirus in a wastewater sample collected in Florianópolis on November 27, 2019

The Italian Institute of Advanced Health issued a communiqué in June last year, stating that researchers had detected the genetic material of the new crown virus in the wastewater from the cities of Milan and Turin that were sampled on December 18, 2019
