Almost a year since the outbreak began, COVID-19 has claimed more than 1.5 million lives, and the Wuhan wet market where it was initially detected stands empty even as the city around it has come back to life. In Wuhan, where the stigma of being the first coronavirus epicentre hangs heavy, over a dozen residents and business owners told Reuters they don’t believe the virus began in the city.
“The first cluster of cases was there, so at least it would be of interest to find out the origin of those and put forward a few hypotheses, like whether it’s more likely from the wild animals or perhaps points to a human superspreader,” said Jin Dong-Yan, professor of virology at the University of Hong Kong.
On the second floor above the empty market, shops selling glasses and optometry equipment reopened in June.
The mystery continues....
Good
fake news...
I thought it is forbidden to say it’s from (whispering voice) China.
Lol you guys tried so hard to find an empty market.
Hmmmm, why?
This article fails to account for the fact that coronavirus has been found in other countries prior to December of 2019. Meaning that the source of the virus is not that market.
I don't think it's ture.
Is this picture taken recently? Hard to believe it still baricated and empty. It is not like Chinese.
But the lights are on..
If these news make some people feel better, okay
Good, you fuckers messed up the whole world
I sure miss eating bats
This is a propaganda move from China. The fact remains, that China keeps on eating endangered animals & animals which pose a risk to public health. Very little has changed in China since the virus outbreak. Their eating habits remain unchangeable.
Does anybody outside of China believe that their COVID figures are authentic? My theory is that China is not shutting down Wuhan for optics but there’s been a significant increase in COVID cases during the past few months. Hence, the light foot traffic. Wuhan COVIDSecondWave
Good
Did they ever really tie the virus to that grocery store?
Good! They also need to stop eating dogs!
Feke news
The outbreak in this market is likely to be caused by frozen food imported from abroad.
So where is the markets located now or is that a secret 😉
Maybe someone still studying...cause I think sooner or later the Communist Regime, will burn completely that place, forever in hell!
Why, they remain low level cases.
Y well guess the germ warfare damage DONE!
