The coronavirus was likely spreading in New York City as early as February, weeks before the Big Apple’s first confirmed case, according to a report citing new research.
Dr. Adriana Heguy, a member of an NYU Grossman School of Medicine team studying the genomes of coronaviruses from city patients, told the New York Times that early findings indicate the virus was in the city well before a Manhattan woman in her 30s became the city’s first official patient on March 1.
Heguy and her team learned of the discrepancy by analyzing the different viral mutations between the city cases, according to the report.
Certain viruses, Heguy told the paper, shared mutations not seen elsewhere.
“That’s when you know you’ve had a silent transmission for a while,” she said.
