[SARS-CoV-2 has no origin]

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the question of the origin of this virus has been the subject of a vivid controversy. It is the question of the "origin" itself which is biased. Darwin showed that there is no determined origin to any animal or plant species, simply an evolutionary and selective process. The same is true for viruses, there is no origin, but an evolutionary process. Viruses circulate from host to host, animals or humans. Pandemic viruses are already circulating in humans and evolving before the onset of disease. This evolutionary process then continues and gives rise to successive variants. The solution is not to target the disease or the putative causative agent but rather to address the process of disease emergence.
