- iknowstuff 4y agoNobody said anything veganism nor moralism except for you. (Almost?) all pandemics were zoonotic. We have reduced the amount of species we keep in our cities but we still have meat markets where they are kept alive until they’re butchered for freshness. Like in Wuhan. > As we increase our interactions with animals through hunting, the trading of animal foods, animal husbandry practices, wet markets, and the domestication of animals or exotic pets, the probability of cross-species transmission dramatically increases. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2874076/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2874076/ Regardless of morals, the more animals we kill, the more pandemics we’re going to have.
