Chinese wet markets that unleashed coronavirus on globe have reopened

[Counselor706]

As the coronavirus pandemic ravages the world, China has reportedly reopened its infamous wet markets.

Wet markets are distinguished from dry markets by the selling of fresh meat, produce, and other perishable items. However, China's wet markets are notorious because exotic animals are often sold in unsanitary conditions.

In fact, the COVID-19 outbreak has been traced back to a Wuhan wet market. Horseshoe bats and exotic mammals, such as civets and pangolins, which act as hosts to the dangerous viruses that bats carry, are often sold at these markets and consumed by local Chinese people.

The Dongguan correspondent reported that the markets are operating just as they were before the COVID-19 outbreak — except now security is stopping people from taking pictures.

You can literally tell the link goes to a RWCJ nutbag site as soon as you see "Wuhan Flu" in the summary.

You can also tell the Woke-O Haram poster because they think anything that doesn't toe the "woke" narrative is RW nutbaggy.

Trump calls the NYT "fake news" so I'm totally right, right? RIGHT?

What? You're all of the sudden ESL now too

Don't you think China needs to make this right, as if that were even possible? The leadership failed in it's ultimate responsibility, really. They tolerated a behavior that ultimately endangered the entire world.They could never make repayment for the deaths and illnesses. There has to be a way to make reparations for the economic consequences at the very least.It's going to be difficult with the Chinese obsession of saving face. Especially if President Trump tries to exact revenge because he gives zero fucks. Do you think China needs to be held liable?

They can eat unicorn meat, kept refrigerated with energy from pixie farts.

Wtf?
It's in my local -reputable- newspapers too, can't think it's fake news.

Not the "wet markets" per se, but the selling of wildlife without even a vet's check.
But I read that many other Asian countries have them too.

Define "nutbag."

So in your universe it is crazy to identify the source of a problem as part of knowing how to correct it? If so I am glad that you are not a doctor.

If you have rats in your house...

If you have rats in your house because you live in filth and then the rats spread disease to your neighbors would it be raciest if the public heath department identified your house as the source of the problem? And if you did it year after year and people all over your town were dying would it be unreasonable to hold you accountable? Or would that be racist or homophobic or rataphopic or some other failing on the part of the people you are harming? The liberal logic on this is stunning.

It's far more American than Wuhan at this point. Why are you defending the CCP and not getting behind America being numero uno, traitor

 

[Hugh_Essay]

Why do you hate their right to make money? Are you some anti american commie who wants to control everything?

 

[sygn]

I read this article which claims that, contrary to Western perception, Asian wet markets aren't necessarily a time ticking bomb.

They say that what Western media calls "wild animals" are actually bred in captivity, with regular health checks and that only a minority are illegally taken from the wild and sold.

Isn't the culinary culture the real problem? What's to stop the poor from eating snakes and bats caught from the wild, instead of paying for meat?

Did everyone just forget the horrors of the American meat industry? Livestock is massively doped up on growth hormones and cannibalized. Chickens in tiny cages are covered in shit by chickens above. Meat processing facilities use prison labor. And probably much worse, since the meat industry tries so hard to prevent videos of their processes and working conditions. Wet markets are more honest about the unsavory side of Big Meat.

Chinese researchers isolated deadly bat coronaviruses near Wuhan animal market

Chinese government researchers isolated more than 2,000 animal viruses, including deadly bat coronaviruses, and carried out scientific work on them just three miles from a wild animal market identified as the epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Several Chinese state media outlets in recent months touted the virus research and lionized in particular a key researcher in Wuhan, Tian Junhua, as a leader in bat virus work.

The coronavirus strain now infecting hundreds of thousands of people globally mutated from bats believed to have infected animals and people at a wild animal market in Wuhan. The exact origin of the virus, however, remains a mystery.

Chinese officials have said the virus likely spread from wild animals to people at Wuhan’s Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, not far from the Wuhan Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the national center for China’s bat virus research.

They are cashing in and expanding their economy
taking advantage of our need for medical supplies.
You talk about Mafia protection money and
that seems to be what this is...

Are you saying that cows are eating cows?
The word cannibalized has a specific meaning.
You sure those cages don't have floors?

 

[dp4shelly]

What logic!

The key is where it came from not where it landed. Your logic is scrambled. If the police see that a man in a green coat shoots a man in a blue coat should they blame the guy with the bullet in him or the guy that was the source?

China is the source. The rest of the world is the victim. They unleash lethal viruses every year and hundreds of thousands suffer and die and you can't figure it out that they are the source of a serious global problem? Wow! What logic!

Wet markets. Biological weapons labs.
You like potato and I like potatoe
You like tomato and I like tomatoe;
Potato, potatoe, tomato, tomatoe!
Let's call the whole thing off!

Mad cow (hopefully) stopped the practice of beef in cattle feed, but chicken in chicken feed is still common. Putting a floor in a cage seems to be too much work and inconvenience for huge poultry operations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqwRLdBsFw8
