When a highly radioactive particle is found outside of a nuclear facility, you don't find nuclear physicists making ridiculous statements about "correlation is not causation" and bending all their efforts to find any other solution than what is plainly obvious.
This is not a correlation/causation fallacy at all. It is a simple application of occam's razor. The "wet market" hypothesis has only ever been a convenient distraction.
