The COVID-19 global pandemic is not even over yet but it has already taught us a lot of lessons - the hard way. The vast majority of the global community has blamed the Chinese Illegal wildlife markets for the origin of this pandemic. Through careful scientific analysis, I have explained in this article that we don't need such wildlife markets for these kinds of outbreaks to occur in the future. I have also explained how India which is the second-most populous country in the world, could be the origin of the next outbreak, even though such wildlife markets are either very rare or do not exist at all in India.
新冠疫情全球大流行尚未结束,但已给我们上了深刻的一课——尽管这是惨痛的教训。绝大多数全球社会都指责中国非法野生动物市场是此次疫情的源头。通过仔细的科学分析,我在本文中解释了,即使在未来,我们也无需通过这种野生动物市场来引发此类疫情。我还解释了,人口仅次于中国的印度,尽管其国内要么非常罕见,要么根本不存在这种野生动物市场,为何仍有可能成为下一次疫情的源头。
