Horseshoe bats are the natural hosts of the ancestor viruses responsible for both the 2002 SARS outbreak and the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a new study suggests the wildlife trade played a key role in transporting the virus to the regions where it first jumped to humans.

Study Finds Wildlife Trade Likely Transported COVID-19 Virus to Humans

This prototype is a once-daily capsule containing three color-coded doses—yellow, green, and red—each stored in a separate compartment and designed to release at different times throughout the day. It has the potential to replace the need for taking multiple pills. Photos by David Baillot / UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering.
