New coronavirus found in wastewater from many places

Viruses have long been "sleeping" in many places around the world?

  The latest research from researchers at the University of Milan in Italy suggests that the new coronavirus may pass from the pregnant woman to the fetus through the placenta. The researchers said they studied 31 women infected with the new coronavirus and delivered in March and April, and found signs of the virus in their cord blood, placenta and other samples.

  The British "Daily Telegraph" website quoted Dr. Tom Jefferson, senior associate lecturer of the Oxford University Evidence-Based Medicine Center, as more and more evidence showed that there was a new coronavirus in wastewater in many places, and the virus may have occurred before the outbreak in Asia. Has been "dormant" in many places around the world, and did not begin to spread until environmental changes.
