Taiwannews being taiwan news. Original interview is not saying patient zero was likely a Wuhan lab researcher but zoonotic transmission was a likely origin category of which a hypothetical infection from employee taking field samples would fall under. He is citing an example not making a claim. > Embarek explained that he believes that infection of a laboratory employee by a bat would be *an example* of direct zoonotic transmission, and is therefore probable: ... >am concluded that direct zoonotic transmission to humans was "possible to likely," while introduction through an intermediate host was "likely to very likely," and introduction through the cold food chain was "possible," but introduction through a laboratory incident was "extremely unlikely." ... >"An employee who was infected in the field by taking samples falls under one of the probable hypotheses. This is where the virus jumps directly from a bat to a human. In that case, it would then be a laboratory worker instead of a random villager or other person who has regular contact with bats. So it is actually in the likely category." Randy Marsh fucking a bat is an example of direct zoonotic transmission, which would fall in the likely category according to WHO.
