believe that humans originally got coronavirus from eating bats
And what are we supposed to conclude from that fact? Someone heard that coronavirus is bat-related, it's not completely unreasonable to assume that it made the jump to humans when someone prepared one for eating.
- ummonk 6y agoYes this doesn't seem like an issue about misinformation, but rather about making a reasonable inference when knowing only a subset of relevant information (they probably remember that coronavirus originated from bats, and early on a wildlife market was suspected as the source of the outbreak and think based on this that people got infected by eating bats).
