Lol imagine drawing this conclusion from that fact. Like discovering a printing press that predates Gutenberg and concluding that printing must have spread from Europe earlier than thought.
pretty obviously it was a natural virus and probably did originate from china as it's from a family of viruses native to east asia and the initial large spread started in China. maybe there were traces of it in Europe before it spread big ut that doesn't really mean anything
