Disagree.
The worlds of bats is a miasma of viruses that human-kind has barely encountered, and which is barely studied.
What makes bats interesting is that flying is so strenuous for them, that they have suppressed inflammatory responses (I guess so that their bat muscles don't get sore). The result is that over many millennia viruses have learned to coexist inside the bats. Did you know there are approximately 1400 species of bat? That's about 21% of all mammal species!! That's a lot of virus hosting.
There is this human tendency to anthropomorphize great events, to ascribe them to an unseen hand. It comes from a need to try to make sense of the insensible, but usually it is wrong. This is one of those times. -
we will never know what caused this virus or where it originated,
China will never tell us, no Gov't will, esp if they had a hand in it,
lots of theories, some seem plausible,
some require tin foil,Comment
