WIV1 is completely different from SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 has distinct genetic features that differentiate it from other known coronaviruses. There is no evidence to suggest that WIV1 can be transmitted from bats to humans or from human to human. This study was from 2018 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6316779/
