Deadly diseases have been around since the beginning of mankind. The questions regarding where and how the damn things start pales in comparison to where and how they end.
The corona virus is here and how it started is as 'productive' a discussion as it was back in the 90s when the finger of blame was directed at Africa and the HIV virus that causes AIDS. Today it's THOSE damn Chinese eating bats. Back then it was THOSE damn Africans screwing monkeys.
Back in January, Trump praised President Xi for China's response to the virus. But strangely his language has changed. Recently he announced he was a 'wartime' President addressing the invasion of the 'Chinese' virus. That's no coincidence.
Trump always has to have a foil.
