2019-2020 coronavirus speculation[edit]
It has been noted that the novel has several similarities with the 2019–20 coronavirus outbreak.[3][4][5][6] In the original 1981 publication, the name of the infectious agent was Gorki-400. Beginning with a 1989 reprint, the name was changed to Wuhan-400. The 2019 coronavirus was first identified in Wuhan, China.
