Epidemiologist and coauthor of the 2026 Nature commentary on COVID-19 origins
In the 78-page document, we determined that most of the peer-reviewed scientific evidence supports the hypothesis that SARS-CoV-2 has a zoonotic origin, meaning that it came from an animal.

Disputed The sentence appears verbatim on the UNMC source page (published 2026-02-25), but that page is an excerpt crediting the Nature comment "COVID’s origins: what we do and don’t know." Nature’s 2026-02-24 page lists 23 named authors, with Nada Ghosn as only one coauthor, so this cannot be verified on this platform as a single-author Nada Ghosn quote.
