Since this was a food market, it's possible and likely that all the source animals were eaten by the time the study was being done.
- cudgy 4y agoAnd this is more likely than a lab leak?
- ceejayoz 4y agoYes? They’re perishable, and intended for consumption.
- cudgy 4y agoThe only infected animals were bunched together in a single truck headed for a single market. That’s more plausible than an existing known virus derivative in a lab in the same city somehow allowing it to escape? Circumstantial activity like the denial and deletion of data surrounding the research at the lab is irrelevant too?
- koliber 4y agoI don't know. I was addressing the question about the lack of infected source animals. I tried to make that clear by quoting the point that I was replying to.
