The two examples I gave are two of the most common ways the virus is transmitted. Correct? I could've listed other ways to swap blood and other bodily fluids if you like. For instance, are we sure that clean blood transfusions or organ transplants are safe? What if some of the viruses in this world are caused by the body trying to reject the foreign substance? Can you tell me with 100% certainty that they are not?
But getting to my point, which I failed to bring across, is the virus, any virus has to start from somewhere or something. They have their own specific genetic makeup. Their own DNA. If scientists can trace the DNA of our species and countless others back to their origins, why can't they do it with this or any other virus? Why can't they then use that information to help fight it?
