Okay, I'll answer your question Cookie Monster. Btw, thanks for coming clean. I do like your new handle, Cookie Monster. You picked a good one!
After you made your post, I did spend some time looking for that video on google, and the claim that the coronavirus didn't start in China. It turns out you can find anything you want to on it. There are conspiracy nuts on everything, so it's not surprising you're going to be able to find some nut that says it didn't start in China.
Here's what they know. It most likely started in Wuhu, China. They aren't sure if started in the wet market, where animals are sold, but they know a lot of people got it there. Maybe that was just a super spreader place. Who knows? It's interesting they haven't been able to identify the first person who got it, since with other viruses like this they have been able to.
Since they don't know the first person who got it is, or what animal it came from, you can bet you're going to continue to see conspiracy nuts coming out of the woodwork with different far flung theories. I'm surprised even Fox News is running with some of this stuff.
At this stage it really doesn't matter. It's here and we got to figure out how to deal with it.
