That doesn't sound like an accurate description to me based on the evidence I have read and seen in Kansas. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7416595/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7416595/ , https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1817674/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1817674/

- robinsoh 4y ago> But it has nowhere near the risk profile for evolving human disease as unregulated wet markets Is your assessment based on evidence? I'd be interested to read a statistical analysis comparing the number of diseases that have come out of "regulated" industrial/factory farming versus unregulated wet markets.
