You're being downvoted for no good reason. Mass farming is what brought us here. This will keep happening, unless we change our behavior.

  Wet markets and mass farming are two different beasts

    Are they though? Mass farming puts humans into orders of magnitude more contact with animals than wet markets. In the case of covid, a wet market led to the disease. There are plenty of cases — just about the majority of plagues — where a domesticated animal led to disease

      In some ways the dangers are different, perhaps more manageable in some cases. For wet markets, it's the unknown from nature. In the case of Domesticated markets, it is more typically an issue either from failures in procedure (i.e. e.coli/listeria/salmonella) or because of over-industrialization (Mad Cow Disease)
