Coronavirus is 'uniquely adapted to infect humans': Top vaccine scientist says it could only have come from an animal through a 'freak of nature' - and the possibility it leaked from Wuhan lab MUST be investigated 

 

Scientists have produced evidence that the pandemic virus is 'uniquely adapted to infect humans', raising fresh questions over whether its origins were natural or could have occurred in a laboratory.

FALSE POSITIVES

Two cases of COVID-19 previously linked to Melbourne's growing outbreak have been reclassified as false positives, the Department of Health has said.

Both cases had been cited by health officials as an example of the virus being transmitted through "fleeting contact" between strangers.

A woman previously understood to have acquired the virus at a display home in Mickleham and a man who was thought to have contracted COVID-19 at the Brighton Beach hotel have been removed from the state's official case count.

:) Good news I reckon.
