Melbourne — The Chinese market linked to some of the earliest Covid-19 cases was illegally selling a range of wildlife from which the coronavirus may have spread, according to a study published less than two weeks after US President Joe Biden ordered a deeper probe into the pandemic’s genesis.
“This brings into focus much that was unclear about what terrestrial animals were being sold in the Huanan wholesale seafood market and the other markets selling illegal wildlife in Wuhan in the years leading up to the pandemic,” said Michael Worobey, head of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Arizona in Tucson, who was not involved in the study.
Both wild-caught and farmed non-domesticated species were sold — alive, caged, stacked and in poor condition — by 17 vendors, the researchers said. None posted an origin certificate or quarantine certificate, “so all wildlife trade was fundamentally illegal”, they said.
The epicentre of all sorts of sh*t.
