Prob shouldn’t be eating meat from China anyway. Due to the lack of regulations the animals are not given vaccines and such to prevent known illnesses in livestock. Tho there was an article a few years ago which said this is changing, some farms are now taking the hit on cost to vaccine their livestock as people are avoiding the meat in favour of imported meat for safety.

You're not going to get it from eating the meat. Its the farmhands who have direct contact with the live animals that are the issue. Or all the workers and buyers in the wet markets handling live animals (and cleaning up their shit). Vaccinating the animals would be a start towards being able to maintain the farming of animals while reducing the risks of future spillovers. And they may want to buy as much time as they can in order to put those kinds of safeguards in place before everyone starts screaming at them to shut it all down now, which is really my point.
