use your brain..... Asians and Africans have been eating these animals (AND WORSE) for generations, and nothing happened to them....now suddenly, this coronavirus happens and you actually think stopping eating these would help?! did the people stop eating cow when there was the mad cow diseases?! stop believing all the rubbish the are feeding us... the CORONAVIRUS was probably created in a lab.

The problem starts when one becomes infected and pass it to humans. Most times, it is not even eating it that transfers the virus, it is handling the infected ones when they are being butchered. Besides unlike Africans who cook properly, these Asians don't properly cook their meat. I was shocked to see a delicacy in an Asian restaurant where the meat (small octopus) had raw blood on it and people were eating. Imagine if that meat was infected with a virus.
That is why these epidemics happen once a while and not regularly

While domestic animals like chicken, goat, cows etc get infected once a while, they hardly generate these deadly viruses that gets transferred to humans and this is the luck we have. However, these wild animals are different, there infections are deadly.
Lastly, there are viruses created in the lab for sure. Some are created as a bioweapon while some are created to develop a vaccine against other potential viruses.
However, any virus created in the lab will have a different type of genetic code to natural viruses and this is easy to spot even to student labs and scientists.

MrBrownJay1:


you danced around the subject yet didnt answer the simple question... so let me rephrase and pretend you didnt understand the question:
did stopping eating these animals SOLVE THE PROBLEMS (of mad cow, bird flu, swine flu, ebola etc?!

I didn't understand the question, but yes, stopping consumption (and interaction) of these animals solve the problem (of it spreading and increasing infections of others):

Those who did not eat infected cows did not suffer from mad-cow disease. Banning the consumption of cows by cows also solved the problem.
Killing infected birds/pigs, in addition to farm sanitization; as well as removing potentially infected meat from the market solved the problem.
Ebola is no longer a pandemic, due to people understanding how it spreads - and more importantly - its source. Not messing with bats, including eating them, has solved the problem.

If someone already has the various diseases, then they have it - they can't un-eat it or un-sneeze it. With luck, they will be among the percentage that survive.

Keep in mind these viruses are latent and natural to their hosts. They have not been erased from existence. What we now understand is how to prevent their spread. This is what I mean by "solve the problem". The problem is not that the virus exists, it's that it spreads and kills more people than the strains we have learned to live with.

Hilarious comment...

You seem to have forgotten how the love of "bat peppersoup" helped to a great extent in the spread of the deadly Ebola virus here in Africa- particularly Guinea.
Even the government had to ban the sale of all bat meat-based dishes.

How do you guys forget these things so quickly

You know what you see in movies, where the bad guys build some sort of bio chemical weapon and plan to infect the air with some bio shitt? It's exactly what happened with Ebola and covid. They'll find the vaccine. It's really not bats or whatever.

Prior to the seventies and eighties, you could pick a random partner and have sex without protection and not be scared of HIV/AIDS. Doing that today is gambling with you life. Many many decades ago, you could scoop water from the river and drink without issues. Today, doing that is playing with your life.
The reality is that with polluted rivers, toxic wastes and what have you finding their way into rivers, oceans and dumpsites from which wild animals feed, you eat wild animals at your own risk!!! Furthermore, drugs act differently in various animals and the fact that some animals feed on others may create chemical reactions that lead to other issues. For example Vultures in India have been found to die after feeding on cattle that was treated with Diclofenac. (source: https://www.thenational.ae/world/asia/vultures-in-india-close-to-extinction-because-of-cattle-drug-1.361882)

Poultry and cattle reared under watchful conditions are safer because often times what they eat is regulated. We shouldn't be in a haste to label warnings as rubbish because we have not given them the deep though and analysis it requires!

MrBrownJay1:


by all means, educate us all and show us which animal people stopped eating that solved any of the zoonotic diseases. did we stop eating cow during mad cow diseases or instead TREATED THE ANIMALS?! did we stop eating chicken during bird flu or instead TREATED THE ANIMALS. did people stop eating monkey/bush meat etc to stop the spread of EBOLA?!?

easier to just stop eating exotic animals than to spend a billion dollars cooking up drugs to cure 50% fatal hemorrhagic fevers like ebola etc.

they are not dietary staples or anything, nobody will get protein deficiency or die if we don't eat them, it's just greed and a lack of responsibility for the self and the environment that make asians and africans eat these bizarre (and most times endangered) animals

OR maybe you could set up a lab and bring those animals then look at them with the aid of a microscope and see that the have the Virus. Coronavirus is not new, COVID-19 is what is new, COVID-19 is a mutation from the family of SARS and MERS. Just the same way bacteria mutates and can become more deadly, so you have to use another antibiotics to treat it.

I have no doubt that biological weapons is a thing but mutation caused COVID-19 and it can be verified under the microscope.
The way i look some pple on diz platform wit sheer stupidity shouting Corona virus is a lab virus, i jst shake my head in pity. It reflect d way some of us tink in diz country dats y dey voted a like-mind somebody 2 rule dem... US created the virus yet same virus dey created is killing its pple.

Whats your proof its man-made? You even dey so comfortable dey talk trash. Oga go read abt Sars in 2002 in relate it wit Corona. Corona mutated from Sars... Movies don reali corrupt ur thinking. Even in d movie, d damage isn't tragic like diz Covid. You can create bacteria n hoard d cure bt Virus, very difficult to fight its while HIV of years back is still yet to get a cure. Jst do ur research on virus n Sars mayb it would enlighten u.
