Writing this article was recommended by a doctor friend of mine.
She is not in Wuhan and is not a front-line medical worker.
She is at home, like us lying on the sofa and holding a mobile phone. She sent a WeChat to her friends one by one and advised everyone to refund the tickets and not travel.
I am the 43rd person who was persuaded by her to refund the air ticket and itinerary for the whole family to Malaysia.
The elder sister of the doctor said, “This time it is animals that use their lives to retaliate against human beings, so write a good one.”

From the South China Seafood Market where a large number of new coronaviruses 2019-nCoV have been detected, take the second ring road, and then enter Wuhan Avenue eastward. The entire route is 19 kilometers away and you can reach the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
It took 13 years to find the source of the SARS virus, Shi Zhengli’s team, and work here.
In 2017, they announced their research results. But back then, memories of SARS were too far away. The media and the general public have not paid much attention to them.
Thirteen years of tracing the source of the virus is a trace that has no path to follow. The civet is just a back-bladder who transfers the virus, and the source of the virus is an unknown species. Everything depends on the hypothesis and the verification of wading mountains and rivers.
Finally, in a cave in Yunnan, Jujube bat was identified as the source of the SARS virus.
In a cave 1558 kilometers away from Wuhan, they conducted five years of surveillance and found the source of the disease. Because “the source of it can be found in order to prevent this disease fundamentally.”
The South China Seafood Market, 19 kilometers away from them, peacocks, kangaroos, foxes … the game trade is booming.
The only lesson that humans have learned from history is that they will never learn.
I’ve seen Shi Zhengli’s speech in a seat. She was a bit shy. She said that she had to find places where there are bats. She had to go over mountains and mountains to make her way. Will add some fun to a tired life. ”
Awake and insane, poverty and profligacy, the search in a daze, and the thought that they are omnipotent, happen at the same time in this city that drinks a river of water.

Looking at the rising cases now, I don’t know if those who are scorned will be themselves tomorrow. I see many people suggesting that even after this outbreak, wildlife trade should be banned.
But are we safe from eating wild animals?
In the cave in Yunnan, Shi Zhengli’s team discovered the natural gene bank of the SARS virus.
So, here comes the problem. Why did the SARS virus traced back to the gene bank in Yunnan, break out in Guangdong.
Scientists speculate that before the outbreak of SARS, most of the domestically raised civets were sold to Guangdong. Chrysanthemum bat SARS-like coronavirus, by accident, infected the civet in Yunnan farms. InfectedThe virus’s civet was subsequently sold to Guangdong.
The virus spread further in the civet on the market, constantly mutating, and eventually produced a highly transmitted SARS virus that infected humans.
If the inference is correct, Guangdong restaurants may have eaten it from the civet in the farm.
Another not directly related to eating game foods is Malaysia’s Nipah virus, which is also a non-therapeutic virus. The natural host is the fruit bats of the flying fox family, which are transmitted from pigs to humans.
Later, the propagation path suggested by scientists was that when humans built pig farms next to fruit bat habitats, fruits contaminated with fruit bat urine or saliva fell into pig pens, and pigs shared with fruit bats. A fruit was sick, and people who ate pigs followed it.
Bat, his old man, has done his best to make himself look like an ingredient; he sealed the virus for thousands of years with his own power, and appeared in caves where the terrain was dangerous, day and night; he did n’t Wings, but he learned to fly, but he still could not avoid the humans who kept coming to him.
If you hope that SARS and his relatives and friends will not come again, it’s really not that everyone should not eat game.
Rather, humans should stop trying to infiltrate the boundaries of their lives into the habitats of wild animals.
You never know, open up territory, open to heaven or earthprison.
In the beginning of 2020, there was news that the Yangtze River Baiji declared “extinction”. Experts said that “severe fishing, especially electric fishing is one of the main reasons for the extinction of Baiji and other species.”
I know a lot of people sighed in the circle of friends, and that’s it. Among many, including me.
There are so many plots in the world. Who knows which one is invited to play tomorrow?

How did people lose their sense of borders with wildlife?
The reason for losing is because we once had. In the era of Shan Hai Jing depicting the magic of strange animals, we had a sense of boundary.
I saw a public service advertisement in the Beijing subway.
The baby elephant said to his mother, “Mom, I have teeth; Mom, I have teeth. Mom, aren’t you happy for me”
One third of the ivory grows in the skull of an elephant. Long teeth may be the watershed of life.
I have seen the manufacturing process of Hermès white Himalayan crocodile platinum bag on the Internet.
Because I want to take the softest, crocodile belly for bag
