Your wrong. It has everything to do with where it came from. Otherwise, next year we will have Covid-21, after that Covid-22, then 23, etc. Do we all agree this virus originated in Wuhan, China? At a wet market there.... Then why the fuck are these wet markets still allowed to operate throughout China? That's FUCKING insane and we will see another coronavirus soon. |
I disagree. It is unimportant where it started (as pandemics like this can start anywhere in the world, also in america as it did before). But it is important how it started, what could've been done better and how to deal with it in the future. Therefore I want to see the lessons we can learn. What I don't want to do is painting the virus as a national problem, because it isn't, it is a global problem and we don't learn from seeing it as national.
About the wet markets: this is a phenomenon that developed in China, that initially started as a way to solve food problems partially for the broad population. Nowadays though it is more something for the upper middle class. As for problematicism - well, I am not sure. I think the safety in these markets could be improved at least. But as the last few infectuous outbreaks didn't came all from China, other countries can't control zoonosis even without wet markets.
