Description (Dublin Core)
I think that this virus was transmitted from some animal (likely from a bat). It may have come from China and now is causing major xenophobia against Asians which is totally wrong. There are definitely a lot of just plain stupid ideas that some weird people have come up with. But I trust scientists more than some middle-aged conspiracists. It does happen where an animal sickness can transfer to human, even though it's rare. I think when it got transferred, the strain adapted to humans and is now causing all of this. Once in a while, a sickness like this shows up. This may not have been one of the worst, but, that doesn't make the deaths any less valid.
