Lab leak doesn't have to do anything with meat production.
- gdubs 6y agoI’m open minded to the lab leak hypothesis, but it’s still just that: a hypothesis. We know that industrial scale meat production results in increased disease risk.
- throwawayyy1986 6y agoSo far we've got no evidence that industrial scale meat production has caused this, and the only similar hypothesis has been zoonotic spill-over - which has it's own trouble substantiating evidence, nevermind explaining how a disease perfectly mutated for human infection seemingly sprung up in Wuhan.

When you cram zillions of animals together with their excrement and humans, you get pandemics by creating the conditions of high-density Petri dishes for evolution and rapid spread.
