It’s likely Covid-19 originated in bats, scientists say. But did it then jump to pangolins?

In the public mind, the origin story of coronavirus seems well fixed: in late 2019 someone at the now world-famous Huanan seafood market in Wuhan was infected with a virus from an animal.

I read a very informative piece which I can’t find now about research at one of two laboratories in Wuhan. It wasn’t xenophobic or a scare story just plain facts about the coincidence of recruitment of virologists with a background in Covids in the months before the outbreak.

I’m fine with Pangolins being the culprit maybe that will help to protect them from illegal poaching

You’re not acknowledging existence of secure Biolab in Wuhan just miles from the Huanan animal market You’re not identifying human patient zero, his/her non-existent link to market prior to infection Did first humans get it then visit market + infect animals/others at market?

No matter where it came from, can we maybe start thinking about how we treat animals? They are not ours to trade, eat, use for medicine, keep in cages, slaughter, abuse, experiment on, force to entertain us...

Trumphaters will say its trumps

The virus came from Wuhan China and the proof is that they are already coming out fast while the rest of the world is still infected. And I hope they close all their places where they eat weird animals.

Bio-weapon from Chinese Communist Party !

By all means try to determine the source...it will be good for you to do your job ( buy they banned foreign press , didn't they) What we know for certain is 👇

Japan (not best friends with China last time I checked) looked at this scientifically in Feb and came to the conclusion it started in USA And as USA had a sudden outbreak of lung disease (that killed 2%) last autumn it'd be nice if some British MSM could at least look into it

I the believe it came from the level 4 bio lab that is only 280m across the road from the wetmarket. And I also believe it was some kind of incompetence or human error at fault. I mean the lab they hold in Beijing has leak SARS multiple times in the past. Covering up incompetence

Bat sex. No need to get in a flap about it.

This article cites only the market, what about the lab near the market?

it were 5g dawg

No, they lifted that ridiculous story from a dumb film

Whatever the Guardian suggests is most likely, you can be fairly sure they will be spectacularly wrong

I believe experiments on Animal fail . Something went wrong

Spoiler alert. This article doesn't give the answer.

So the answer is yes it came from the market but we aren’t sure which animal.

You're asking ME?

I did not have sex with that bat

Informative! Irrespective of which poor animal it came from, I hope the global community does the required research and are able to put an end to this nightmare

We’ll never know

No its ChineseVirus you sold outs
