title: Zoonotic origins of COVID-19
text: SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, was first introduced to humans through zoonosis, and a zoonotic spillover event is the origin of COVID-19 that is considered most plausible by the scientific community. Human coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 are zoonotic diseases that are often acquired through spillover infection from animals.
