This has been going on for DECADES. This paper was published in 2006, that's 14 years ago!
Summary In Chinese wet-markets, unique epicenters for transmission of potential viral pathogens, new genes may be acquired or existing genes modified through various mechanisms such as genetic reassortment, recombination and mutation. The wet-markets, at closer proximity to humans, with high viral burden or strains of higher transmission efficiency, facilitate transmission of the viruses to humans. Source: Infectious diseases emerging from Chinese wet-markets: zoonotic origins of severe respiratory viral infections https://journals.lww.com/co-infectiousdiseases/Abstract/2006/10000/Infectious_diseases_emerging_from_Chinese.2.aspx So you can't say that any of this is a surprise. What the hell has our government been doing for 14 years?? Isn't our government supposed to support us, and do what's right for us? Why are we putting up with this crap from China? They don't have the RIGHT to do these things. Their actions affect all of us! Our government needs to demand that ALL wet markets remain closed FOREVER and put REALLY strong penalties in place for wildlife trade. There are MANY coronaviruses in bats, so there could literally be a new pandemic every single year in the future if we do nothing to stop them. |

Until you find out the products you want aren’t made here anymore..... |
| China is a medieval communist country that fabricated data to make itself look better, costing countless lives across the globe. And guess what? China doesn’t look better — the stupidity and lies from its leaders have shown the world that China will never truly be a modern, trustworthy country. Expect longterm economic damage to China for this debacle. |
| There are wet markets all over the world. It isn't specific to China. There are dozens and dozens of countries that have wet markets in every town. They are part of Asian society. |
| China has released the virus to the world. Now that the world is shut down they are free to do their takeover of Africa and the South China Sea. Worked out well for them. Sacrifice? We are the sacrifice. |

This is akin to accusing the first victim of a serial rapist of arousing his desire by dressing skimpily. Sure the first victim is always to blame. Still, I wonder why no one blamed the Kansas farm(s) for releasing the Spanish flu to the world. |
Communist ... LOL Welcome to 2020 grandma |
There is no evidence to this...either way, we have come a long way in regulating meat production to make sure we aren’t passing diseases to people through food, pulling contaminated food, inspecting farms and meat production, etc. When is the last time the US caused a pandemic from shady food practices?? Because China has a few times in my short life already.. |
There is strong evidence that Spanish flu originated in Kansas https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC340389/ Whereas I think wet markets of all kinds should be banned, scientists have not found a definite link between wet markets and the covid-19. It is definitely not made in a lab, though. What is amazing is that someone try politicize the origin of covid-19, the first time in the history of human fighting pandemics. In 2009 H1N1 flu, people first thought the origin was in US, but then revised the origin to a remote farm in Mexico, still no one made a big deal of the origin of the H1N1 flu. |
Because Spanish flu starting at a Kansas farm or h1n1 starting at a Mexico farm are one off occurances at best and are hypothesises. There is no pattern to these places/farms being problematic. Chinese wet markets and wild animal handing/consumption has shown to be problematic over and over, yet nothing is done about it. Their government will literally lock you into your house- they could stop these practices if they wanted to |
This EXACTLY. We just bought a beautiful new HEPA Air Filter for $99 on sale, regular price is 129. And guess what? It's made in South Korea! We CAN avoid Communist Chinese Crap. |
The Spanish flu came from China fyi. |
| I want to throw everything from China in the trash right now, but it's almost everything I have. This has to change. |
