Researchers: no bats or pangolins sold in the Wuhan markets

The Daily Mail has another interesting COVID-19 story.

Researchers looked at 50,000 animals traded in Wuhan from 2017 to Nov. 2019, and it won’t come as much of a surprise at this point, but scientists found “no evidence” of bats or pangolins at markets in the city of Wuhan.

Instead, they argued that the scores of wild animals kept in filthy cages and neglected by the merchants provided an abundance of routes for Covid-19 to pass on to humans.

Chris Newman, from the University of Oxford, told Mailonline: ‘Some of these species are known to host a variety of diseases.

“Our data cannot determine how humans became infected with Covid-19, only that direct contact with pangolins or bats in these markets seems highly implausible,” they said.

The authors, whose work was published in Scientific Reports on Wednesday, said the thousands of animals that were traded in Wuhan were “capable of hosting a wide range of infectious zoonotic diseases or disease-bearing parasites.”

‘The creatures were sold for huge sums. Marmot meat, for example, was five times the cost of pork.

The researchers will next explore the possibility of it developing naturally from animal to humans.

How about exploring the possibility that it came from the CCP laboratory?

This article and so many others continually say Trump’s theory is it developed in a lab, but that is the view of many in the intelligence agencies.

None could recall ever seeing bats in the market. The Chinese scientists suggested that the virus might have escaped the virus institute. That article was pulled from Researchgate without explanation. You can still find it in the… Read more »

What we are seeing is nothing less than a massive cover up. The reality is that Communist Democrats worked with the CCP to release COVID on the World for the sole purpose of getting President Trump out of Office. There are cover ups on multiple levels. One is the Market Place. The Conspirators are doing everything they can to hide… Read more »

If the USA had decent investigators or media the public would have been aware a year ago that the virus did not come from the market. The bat was not sold there, and there is no natural pathway in the virus structure, making the official story doubly impossible.

Bat meat on a stick and it tastes just like chicken.
Mystery meat kebab with spicy seasoning? Naw, I’ll pass, comrade.
