Where Did COVID-19 Start? The Facts and Mysteries of Its Origin

In recent months, consideration of the so-called lab leak hypothesis has seemingly gained momentum By Jessica McDonald • NBC Universal, Inc.

Was it the result of a spillover from an animal to a human, as has happened repeatedly in the past? Or did the virus accidentally escape from a nearby lab in Wuhan? The default answer for most scientists has been that the virus, SARS-CoV-2, probably made the jump to humans from bats, if it was a direct spillover or, more likely, through one or more intermediate mammals.

Is this inhaler the answer to anxiety attacks?

A hand-held breath ‘pacer’ has been developed to treat panic attacks thought to affect as many as one million Britons, causing symptoms such as a fast heartbeat, chest pain, feeling faint and shortness of breath.

But the potential side-effects have driven a search for drug-free treatments.
