    Large concentration of life animals... yeah it works like that.

    If you're exceptionally keen to fling on an ethnicity to that qfever... you can call it the caucasian disease if you want.

    Qfever happens... and the amount of covid19's pandemics has been 1.

    You sounds like Trump ranting on 9th of march we only got 22 deaths, and we don't close the economy when 1000's of people die of the common flu. And lets think about that. ... being in total denial that a pandemic is just around the corner.

    Are you under the impression that COVID-19 is likely to be the only virus originating at a wet market in history?

    When did I say any of that?

    Oh you didn't mean anything with posting that question. You just want me to look things up for you, because you're dumb and lazy to do it yourself? Is that it?
    Use google, and make you own argument if you have something to say.

    So far I made my point rather clear that if you're against wet markets, that the entire meat industry needs to get an overhaul. It's all potentially dangerous.

    Nobody knows how many this killed. Maybe up to a kewl 100 million people.

    I asked, "has there ever been a Q Fever pandemic?" and you think that's sounding "like Trump ranting on 9th of march we only got 22 deaths,
    and we don't close the economy when 1000's of people die of the common flu?"


    How can I use Google to find out if YOU are under the impression that COVID-19 is likely to be the only virus originating at a wet market in history? The fact is that it's NOT the only virus!

    Yeah okay, you have a pretty clear example of a virus which obviously started in the pig industry. Now you just have to find another two at least to be equal to the Chinese wet markets.

    Okay, so there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that this is a significant danger, right? So why are you equating it to wet markets?

    animals can transmit to humans, they are not a danger until they are

    vegans would ban all meat if they could

    our high carb Standard American Diet is killing and harming many lives, why do we allow it, cause its cheap food and very profitable to sell

    I am saying there is danger both ways, are you saying people starving is ok, I am saying help the people be able to afford freezers, and they won't need to buy live food, if the choice is starve or buy live food, we know what they will choose

    And when do you think that China was aware of the danger of the wet markets?

    I'm for reducing the size of government but I want to keep the State department. As to multinational businesses I think I would like to keep most of them. I would probably support having the pharmacy industry stay home.

    I agree with those three. Since the U.S. is the most powerful country, the other countries ban together to be anti-American. We would do well to withdraw from them. Then they could be anti-American with less money.

    I argue that it was extreme to do a full cut, however it could just be a play to get them to the table. Either way, I doubt that the US were due for their next payment, so I'm sure that the WHO can live off savings for a few minutes. Leftists saying that it's going to cost lives are being typically idiotic.

    lol a 3rd rated news outlet, there are alot fake news out there you know. there is no way to stop wet market unless we invade EVERY developing world from india to SE asia, even taiwan/japan/hongkong has wet market. i think you misunderstand the meaning of wetmarket. remember H1N1 was from pig factory. as long there are live animal in tight space, there is risk of infection.

    China wet markets are responsible for SARS & the Wuhan China Coronavirus.

    Maybe they are going for the trifecta.

    The WHO is probably already drafting excuses for the next China Virus.

    So how do you explain the contradictory quotes seen even in the Washington Post?

    Invasion is the only way to get a country to do something?

    Yeah, but can you name another two so that it is equal to viruses caused by Chinese wet markets?

    Well the other option is ULTRA regulation, under the careful watch of an international committee, probably formed under the WHO. This committee would probably be the only international government entity which would have my support.

    How do you explain 4bc.com saying that WHO supports reopening of Chinese wet markets when clearly they didn't?

    The quotes which I refer to! Quotes which have been seen in outlets as reputable as the Washington Post.
