The origins and evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus

By Frank Gaglioti
24 August 2020

The SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes the disease COVID-19 is nimbly and stealthily racing through community after community devastating the worlds population. Over 23 million people have contracted the virus worldwide and 810,000 have died. It is critical to review the evolutionary history of this particular virus to provide necessary insights into how the pandemic can be brought under control.
Researchers worldwide are working arduously to trace the virus globally by studying samples obtained from various nations looking for subtle mutations that it undergoes as it infects, replicates and multiplies, providing them clues to the source and route of spread.
COVID-19 is caused by a type of coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2, named for its similarity to the coronavirus that caused SARS. The virus is called a coronavirus because it is covered by club-like structures that give the virus a similar look to the suns corona in electron micrographs.
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is part of a family of organisms that are known to infect mammals and birds. The Coronaviridae family are made up of a positive-sense single-stranded RNA completely enveloped in a complex protein and bilipid shell. These viruses are relatively large, consisting of 26 to 32 kilobase pairs. RNA or ribonucleic acid is a nucleic acid that is essential for all reproductive processes and like DNA.
The first known scientific encounter with this family of virus is thought to be when veterinarians puzzled over bronchial infections afflicting cats, pigs, and chickens in the early 20th century.
Study of disease afflicting and damaging tobacco crops in the late 19th century led some thoughtful scientists like Dimitri Ivanovsky to conjecture the existence of non-bacterial infectious agents causing the tobacco mosaic disease. It would take another 50 years to capture the first images of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus. The invention of the electron microscope in 1931 enabled scientists to observe viruses more closely, allowing a more extensive and direct study of these micro-organisms. Virology as a field began to flourish.
Human coronaviruses were first identified in the 1960s. Seven species of coronavirus are known to afflict humans. Four result in relatively mild upper respiratory tract conditions, including the virus 229E that causes the common cold, along with NL63, OC43 and HKU1.
The other three strains, SARS, MERS, and SARS-CoV-2, are far more virulent. All these viruses were new to human populations when they first arose in the 21st century. A feature of SARS, MERS and COVID-19 is that they had a zoonotic origin, that is they originated in animal populations and then jumped into humans. The SARS outbreak in 2002, with a case fatality rate of 11 percent, showed the world the deadly potential of coronaviruses, but this was a warning that was mostly ignored. There had only been 8,422 cases and since 2004 no SARS-CoV has been reported worldwide. One advantage for public health responses to SARS was that it had an incubation period of 4 to 6 days and patients presented with symptoms prior to becoming infectious.
In their extensive investigations, the World Health Organisation (WHO) concluded that the SARS virus originated in bat populations, but the exact species remains unknown. Work commenced on the development of a SARS vaccine with testing on animals. The vaccine resulted in protective immunity but produced an immune mediated hypersensitivity as an adverse effect. The SARS threat, for unknown reasons, expired after six months though limited outbreaks did occur later.
With the threat of a pandemic having ended after six months, so did any interest in funding a vaccine, as pharmaceutical companies saw no profit in funding or exploring such research. The co-director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Childrens Hospital and dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Dr. Peter Hotez, had been attempting to develop a SARS vaccine in 2016 but couldnt get funding for his work. We tried like heck to see if we could get investors or grants to move this into the clinic ... But we just could not generate much interest, he said.
We could have had this ready to go and been testing the vaccines efficacy at the start of this new outbreak in China (COVID-19) There is a problem with the ecosystem in vaccine development, and weve got to fix this, Hotez said.
The genomic sequence of the SARS virus was published in August 2003 by Chinese scientists in Beijing. In actuality, when the cause of the pneumonia-like illness was first identified in Wuhan, some believed this was a new outbreak of the SARS virus. SARS-CoV-2 and SARS share a genomic sequence that is approximately an 80 percent match.
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, or MERS, emerged in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and had a zoonotic origin in bats and was spread to humans through contact with dromedary camels. The virus produced symptoms similar to SARS but it had a low infectivity though highly lethal. Of the reported 2,500 cases, 35 percent died from the disease.
With limited capacity to spread from human to human, it was mainly passed through contact with infected people in hospitals. In the main it was concentrated in the Arabian Peninsula, although there were further outbreaks in South Korea in 2015 and Saudi Arabia in 2018. It continues to smoulder in the Middle East.
When the SARS CoV-2 virus emerged in late 2019, the world was totally unprepared. Health systems internationally had been systematically run down and were ill-equipped to respond. The warnings from WHO of the dangerous potential of the virus were largely ignored or belittled. The murderous government policies that dominated have been described as malign neglect or herd immunity.
SARS CoV-2 arose in Wuhan in December 2019. The virus is thought to have originated from bats and to have transferred to humans through an intermediary species. The exact origins of the virus may never be known. It is quite possible we wont find it (the species). In fact, it would be exceptionally lucky if we land on something, a geneticist from University College London, Lucy van Dorp, told Nature .
Back in 2013, the Wuhan Institute of Virology had investigated the coronavirus genome from the horseshoe bat ( Rhinolophus affinis ). The viruses named RATG13 and SARS-CoV-2 were found to be 96 percent genetically similar. There are, however, subtle molecular changes that continue to be investigated that contribute to selection pressures that drive the virulence, pathogenicity, and immunogenic qualities of the virus.
In their detailed analysis of the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, Andersen et al., 2020, offered three possible explanations: 1) natural selection in an animal host before jumping into humans, 2) natural selection in humans after the virus transferred into human hosts, and 3) the product of artificial manipulation, which has been refuted by several virologists. According to Van Dorp, the 4% difference between the genomes of SARS-CoV-2 and RATG13 still represents some 50 years since they last shared a common ancestor.
It was thought that pangolins ( Manis javanica ), a scaly ant-eating mammal, may be the intermediate host between bats and humans, but genetic studies indicate that as unlikely. However, some scientists think that because coronavirus-like SARS-CoV-2 cases have been found in pangolins, that species cannot be ruled out as the intermediary source.
Scientists are currently examining species of animals that were kept and sold in the live markets in Wuhan where bats may have been in the buildings roof near animals and humans. Presently a team of experts from the WHO are working with their Chinese counterparts to answer this pressing question.
The opportunities for these viruses to spill over across a very active wildlife-livestock-human interface is clear and obvious, the president of the EcoHealth Alliance in New York City, Peter Daszak, told Nature. The complex evolutionary history of SARS-CoV-2 disproves President Donald Trumps ignorant claims (which have a political purpose) that the virus came out of a Chinese laboratory. Whether they [China] made a mistake, or whether it started off as a mistake and then they made another one, or did somebody do something on purpose? Trump said.
In a recent paper published in Nature Microbiology Evolutionary origins of the SARS-CoV-2 sarbecovirus lineage responsible for the covid-19 pandemic, led by Maciej F Boni from the Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics at Pennsylvania State Universityfound that the lineage of SARS-CoV-2 had been circulating in bat populations for decades. If these viruses have been around for decades that means that theyve had lots of opportunity to find new host species, including humans, said Professor David Robertson from the University of Glasgow.
Scientists have carefully examined the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) of the genetic sequence that codes for the spike protein, the necessary structure on the virus exterior shell that is used to bind and penetrate the human cell. The spike protein has been compared to a grappling hook that grips the host cell, then creates a cleavage site that enables the opening and penetration into the host cell.
This means that the SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins had evolved to target a feature of human cells known as angiotensin converting enzyme 2 receptor (ACE2) which are well known to assist in regulating blood pressure.
Andersen et al ., remark that the RBD is the critical component of the spike protein that allows it to bind to ACE2 receptors. SARS-CoV-2 appears to bind with great affinity to the human ACE2 receptors, but computational analysis predicted that the interaction is not ideal. According to the New York Times, the authors indicate that the high-affinity bindings of the virus spike protein to human ACE2 is most likely a by-product of natural selection that has permitted another optimal binding solution to arise. They then conclude that this is strong evidence that SARS-CoV-2 is not a product of genetic reconstruction or tampering.
These two features of the virus, the mutations in the RBD portion of the spike protein and its distinct backbone, rule out laboratory manipulation as a potential origin for SARS-CoV-2, wrote Kristian Andersen, associate professor of immunology and microbiology at Scripps Research, and co-leader of the study.
With SARS-CoV-2 virus proliferating around the world, the opportunity arises for further mutations and the emergence of new strains of the virus. This can mean that new virus strains may develop in the future not treatable by possible vaccines that were originally made to treat older strains.
According to Assistant Teaching Professor of Computer Science and Technology Niema Moshiri, COVID-19s mutation rate is lower than seasonal influenza. The SARS-CoV-2 genome has a limited repair function that edits out most mutations. This has meant the virus has remained relatively uniform.
What we are finding is that the SARS-CoV-2 virus appears to be mutating more slowly than the seasonal flu which may allow scientists to develop a vaccine, Moshiri wrote on LiveScience. Despite this, variations do occur, and virologists are constantly looking at the variants to determine if a more virulent strain may be emerging or if the virus is losing its potency.
Scientists are collecting virus sequences and storing them in a globally available database. This is used to determine the rate of mutation and where in the virus genome mutations are occurring. Such mutations can affect the virulence and how effectively the virus can infect human host cells. The existence of different viral strains can be used to trace outbreaks.
Analysis of the SARS-CoV-2 virus from different countries has shown that the virus has undergone several predicted but insignificant mutations already. Scientists led by Peter Forster, along with researchers based in the UK and Germany, traced 160 COVID-19 genomes from China, Europe, and the US. They identified three strains of the virus called A, B and C. Type A is considered to be the original Chinese ancestral type. Type B is found in Asia, Europe and the US and has diverged from A with 2 mutations. Type C differs from type B at one site and is mostly confined to Europe and mostly absent from China.
More recently, researchers have alerted that a new strain, D614G, has become dominant in many countries. The D614G variant first came to our attention in early April, as we had observed a strikingly repetitive pattern. All over the world, even when local epidemics had many cases of the original form circulating, soon after the D614G variant was introduced into a region it became the prevalent form, wrote theoretical biologist at Los Alamos National Laboratory Bette Korber, in the journal Cell .
This mutation is present in roughly two third of all global strains, according to Associate Professor Denis Bauer, transformational bioinformatics team leader at CSIROs Australian e-Health Research Centre. The mutation that originated in the virus spike protein (not the RBD section) is thought to make it more contagious, but speculation that the virus is more virulent is extremely difficult to prove.
Scientists from the Department of Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases at the Yale School of Public Health led by Nathan D. Grubaugh published a paper in Cell titled Making Sense of Mutation: What D614G Means for the COVID-19 Pandemic Remains Unclear. The paper examines whether the strain is more transmissible, infectious, or deadly, but concludes that these data do not prove that G614 is more infectious or transmissible than viruses containing D614. They conclude there is no evidence that the virus strain leads to more severe disease.
The history of human populations and coronaviruses indicate a possible course for the current pandemic. For instance, the virus OC43 is responsible for the common cold, but a study by researchers from the University of Leuven in Belgium suggest it may have been responsible for a pandemic in 1889 that killed more than 1 million people internationally. They speculate that humans eventually developed immunity against the virus, making future infections more benign.
The course of this pandemic is on par with one of historys most severe health crisis in modern times. For humanity to develop herd immunity to SARS-CoV-2 would imply untold millions of deaths and incompletely understood chronic health morbidities. Yet, in the 21st century, where scientific knowledge is capable with confronting the threat, capitalism enchains humanitys ability to respond in kind.

Michael_Novakhov shared this story from 1. US Security from Michael_Novakhov (87 sites).

We explain what makes this firearm among the best in the world.

The Remington Model 1100 has been the quintessential shotgun for homestead defenders, pro skeet shooters, and hunters of all experience levels for more than fifty years.

An extremely successful design of simplicity in the best ways has made this Remington one of the most popular autoloading all-purpose shotguns. With so many productions and guns out there, some older than the Ford Mustang, the temptation to purchase used is something that many buyers consider.

Accuracy

There is no question that the Remington is lethal. Regardless of barrel, load, or caliber, this baby was made to demolish any well-aimed target within 30 yards. Longer barrels, up to a whopping 30, are best for long-range trap shoots or hunting.

The Remington has proven synonymous with waterfowl hunting since its inception. Any time Im out on a hunt with my bird dogs and buddies, Im not the only one with my Remington at my side. Field-load performs with the same accuracy seen with target-load thanks to brilliant design. The consistency in popularity among my fellow hunters speaks volumes for reliable accuracy on target.

Also a regular in competitions and skeet shooting, the deadly accuracy of the Remington 1100 is legendary.

Reliability

Introduced in 1963, the Remington has a venerable reputation of reliability and toughness.

The clean design and ease of tear down for regular maintenance, make for easy long term care as well as easy access to the bits and pieces that can indicate if the Remington you are considering is up to snuff with its peers. A simple check of the O-ring for wear and tear can be a great clue to the upkeep from previous owners.

Regular cleaning will keep this champion of temerity free from failure for decades. Ive always paid close attention to the gas system where the gas ports meet the tube and watch to keep the crud that can collect there at bay.

As long as you stick to cleaning your Remington regularly, with a full break down after each day of shooting, this weapon will reward you with unwavering reliability.

Handling

The feel of the Remington 1100 shotgun is quite simply put, the way a shotgun should feel.

Perhaps this is due to the comfort of such a regular presence on the hunt dating back to my primary years, but Remington has evolved with the times and continues to maintain excellence in feel and handling.

Now you can find everything from the classic black with engraved walnut forend and stock, options that are fully wrapped in camo covering, all the way to a more futuristic tactical black and synthetic line. No matter which generation you choose, they will all have that same high-quality solid feel, without any rattle or wiggle.

Now I prefer the classic wood and black Remington, but that may be simply because thats what I grew up with, out in the fields. It feels good in the hand. Better, I think, than the synthetic 30 barrelled options, designed for skeet. The slick skeet options have a clean silver nickel finish, which is a smooth and mean look. Call me nostalgic though, because I still prefer my engraved stock and warm walnut any day.

Trigger

Most of the Remingtons, any that have gone through the years without being modified anyway, will have a solid and smooth nickel trigger that trips with just over 4 lbs. of pressure.

The trigger on used weapons needs attention to ensure good wear. A worn or loose carrier dog can prevent the trigger from engaging as its supposed to. Failure to identify this with some testing on a range can result in weapon jams.

The safety tends to be a bit clicky, and could potentially scare small game off if you arent careful, but overall the mechanisms are tried and true. You shouldnt have any trouble getting comfortable with your trigger pull on this steady horse.

Magazine and Reloading

The Remington 1100 carries four shots in the tube and one in the chamber and is a semi-auto shotgun designed to be used in any situation.

For my hunting, the muscle memory of loading has become so second nature that I have little issue with getting reloaded. You can modify it to a standard loading gate or an easy loader if you need to reload quickly. Especially for competition shooters, the modification may be what best suits.

There is also an ambidextrous bolt release, aka carrier release, to allow anyone the comfort of a quick reload.

Length and Weight

The length and weight of the Remington 1100 can be just as varied as the engraving and check patterns that youll find. This is a shotgun that comes in all shapes and sizes.

The evolution of the shotgun ranges from field guns, longer barrels for skeet and trap, to engraved keepsakes. Barrel lengths vary from the shortest 18 barrels to 30 for long-range accuracy. Those longest of barrels will put the overall length to a whopping 50 gun.

Averaging in weight between 8 to 9lbs, this solid weapon is a good carry that is balanced well. There just isnt anything much better than early morning, with my Remington settled perfectly in the crook of my arm, barrel down to the ground like my setters nose as we stalk along.

The barrels can be changed out for different uses. So, if you find the perfect Remington that may not be the appropriate length, its quite simple to adjust to what best suits.

Recoil Management

Recoil management is what makes the Remington 1100 shine.

The design, with its heft and balance, combined with the gas-operated action, makes this soft shooter a stand-out performer with significantly lower recoil. If you are testing used, a heavy kick may be a clue that something isnt quite right.

Remington technology continues to improve as the years go by. Simply modifications can be made to older weapons, or to those in need of some TLC, to improve the recoil management on any Remington. Shock absorbers or recoil pads are easy to install and can make the smooth fire even better.

Price

The price of the Remington, like so many other features, is as varied as the weapon itself.

You can easily find new Remington models priced well into $1,300 to $1,500 MSRP, and conversely, you will find an array of used models at an extremely modest $400 to $600.

This good news means that it is incredibly easy to find a reasonably affordable choice to start competing, as a first hunting shotgun or a wise choice for home defense. Attention to details in the used market, like a check for rust in the extractor-plunger hole, missing small pieces like the mag spring retainer or worn seals, can save incredible amounts of money.

My Verdict?

Theres a reason theyve been making this shotgun since 1963. Consistency in performance and a stellar reputation are well earned in the Remington 1100. Simple sleuthing in the used market may be worth your while. Investing in the latest technology for a weapon that will last your lifetime will be a good buy. No question here. No matter what look, caliber, barrel, or configuration you decide on, this is the perfect shotgun. Four million and counting...

Stars and Stripes: High winds could fan already-enormous California wildfires

Michael_Novakhov shared this story from 1. US Security from Michael_Novakhov (87 sites).

A calm during the night allowed firefighters to make progress against a trio of massive wildfires burning in Northern California but they were girding for a weather system Sunday that will bring high winds and thunderstorms that could spark new fires and could fan existing blazes that have destroyed nearly 1,000 homes and other structures and have forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate.
