Some dude couldn't resist eating a live animal that was not supposed to be eaten

and impacts another country to choose who should get treated and whom to let go ( older people are not being treated in Italy)

If we can't learn something from this, the end of human race is coming soon then

 

Americans ni fully cooked thinandi, dont medium or rare cook ani chepu, manalni theda gaallu laga chustaru , bottomline is this time it is from bats, in future it is from something else

Bats are the only mammal that can fly, allowing them to spread in large numbers from one community over a wide area, scientists say. This means they can harbor a large number of pathogens, or diseases. Flying also requires a tremendous amount of activity for bats, which has caused their immune systems to become very specialized.
 
"When they fly they have a peak body temperature that mimics a fever," said Andrew Cunningham, Professor of Wildlife Epidemiology at the Zoological Society of London. "It happens at least twice a day with bats -- when they fly out to feed and then they return to roost. And so the pathogens that have evolved in bats have evolved to withstand these peaks of body temperature."
Cunningham said this poses a potential problem when these diseases cross into another species. In humans, for example, a fever is a defense mechanism designed to raise the body temperature to kill a virus. A virus that has evolved in a bat will probably not be affected by a higher body temperature, he warned.
 
Zoologists and disease experts have told CNN that changes to human behavior -- the destruction of natural habitats, coupled with the huge number of fast-moving people now on Earth -- has enabled diseases that were once locked away in nature to cross into people fast.
Scientists are still unsure where the virus originated, and will only be able to prove its source if they isolate a live virus in a suspected species -- a hard task.

of course bhayya it is revenge of mother nature

Chinese people don’t eat Bats. Corona virus originated in Bats.. so are MERS and SARS viruses. This somehow spread to a pangolin, which was killed for meat. The first few cases were workers at the meat market that had all these animals.
The first two viruses spread via a Camel and a wild Cat.

No one lives on a purpose, birth and death are real.

The ability to think : will it be useful or leads to disaster

we don't know if we have soul, afterlife.

afterall gods are born after creation of nature/solar system.

May be may not , for human knowledge it is true... For the knowledge above it... May not be true

The reason that bats are not affected by the virus they carry is because they have a reduced expression of the STING pathway that has been shown to be the reason why humans get affected by a lot of viruses. Infact the person that showed that there is less STING in bats is a guy who works at Wuhan Institute of Virology who studies coronavirus in bats.

India is more prone to mosquito born viruses.. doesn’t matter whether you eat curd rice or not..
