First Assumptions

So, the first thing I heard to be the cause of the virus was because of someone eating a bat. A BAT!!! I thought that the person that did it went cookoo for coco pops or something because of all things they could've eating it was a bat! I guess he wanted to be like Ozzy Osborne or something. "Surprisingly", it was just a false rumor but at the time it was all over TikTok (probably the most popular social media out there now) and people where making memes and jokes about it too that were hilarious! A lot of people believed it but i'm not so sure what made them think that. All in all, it was just a very odd assumption that really got people talking.
