Oh my Corona: This novel leaked about Corona Virus 40 years ago

We all are aware of the deadly Corona Virus that took the lives of 1700 people and has been infected to thousands of innocents since its outbreak. The Wuhan animal market in China is the epicenter of this virus and what if we tell you that a fiction novel predicted the Corona Outbreak 40 years ago.

A thriller novel The Eyes of Darkness, written by Dean Koontz in 1981, mentioned a virus named Wuhan-400. In the novel, the virus was created as a weapon in a laboratory. The novel mentioned it as Wuhan-700 and evaluated the same symptoms that Corona show in the human being and termed it as man-made.

We must agree that fiction can be strange at times but this precision is bothering most of the people in the world especially the people living in 25 countries in which the Corona has spread. Internet is absolutely stumped with the reference of the Wuhan virus in this book and is assuming that this virus emerged as a man-made-mistake instead of an accident.

There are several things to support this cause as if a virus spreads accidentally, the health care officials will identify its focal point and curb it at the initial stage. But, the Chinese failed to restrict its outbreak and it leads to many suspicions.
