How wildlife trade is linked to coronavirus

- And why the disease first appeared in China.
NOTE: As our expert Peter Li points out in the video, “The majority of the people in China do not eat wildlife animals. Those people who consume these wildlife animals are the rich and the powerful -a small minority.” This video explains how the people of China are themselves victims of the conditions that led to coronavirus. The virus is affecting many different countries and cultures, and there is never justification for xenophobia or racism.

As of early March 2020, a new coronavirus, called COVID-19, is in more than 70 countries and has killed more than 3,100 people, the vast majority in China. That's where the virus emerged back in December 2019. This isn't a new phenomenon for China; in 2003, the SARS virus also emerged there, and under similar circumstances, before spreading around the world and killing nearly 800.
Both SARS and COVID-19 are in the "coronavirus" family, and both appear to have emerged from animals in China's notorious wildlife markets. Experts had long predicted that these markets, known to be potential sources of disease, would enable another outbreak. The markets, and the wildlife trade that supports them, are the underlying problem of these pandemics; until China solves that problem, more are likely to emerge.

Not only is this causing diseases it’s also killing endangered species
And why would that be a big issue at this time? I like animals too but I'm a little more worried about humans.
some species actually helped the enviroment, China is killing them making the enviroment worse and worse, making their enviroment nasty and well... just bad. Technically, its the humans fault the virus are spreading, its their fault to begin with. So yeah, I don't feel bad for the humans that make that process happend, but i felt bad for the people who have nothing to do with killing the enviroment and getting the virus and also the animals/plants.

@@shally6228 actually interesting ly enough 7% of human DNA has viral footprinting meaning at some point in the human race at some point in our history virus has infected us but didn't hurt us as many viruses don't actually heard us or do anything massively horrible to us. But they infected us and instead of taking over our DNA they became part of it at some point. How fascinating and amazing is that 7% is a large amount and for all of the human race to have this means that it's been happening over Millennia that humans have been evolving and developing before we had any kind of written language in before any of the things that we know anything about. Who knows maybe viral DNA will hide something from us in our own genes that will tell us a little bit more about history like fossils do

Thats why this time they should pay all damage socialy and financialy cause they where triing to hide this thats why on march 16th thousends in the west already died and is going bankrupt
@un known WWIII Great Idea there. The Chinese government needs to permanently stop the practice they encouraged years ago. As mentioned in the video, these markets and foods are really only for the rich. I have been to China multiple times and never seen any foods like these myself. It's a practice that serves the rich, that the government has to shut it down now, and if they do not, then they must and will undoubtedly face the most severe economic sanctions imaginable from the rest of the world.
IT IS NOT RACIST TO POINT OUT DANGEROUSNESS IN CHINA'S WILDLIFE EATING HABITS.
"Habits" is the wrong word here. They said in the video (that u pretend to have watched) that only the "rich and powerful" eat wildlife animals. Therefore it is racist to say China's wildlife rating habits is dangerous. Since it's untrue for most of the population (since they don't eat it). Tottaly agree on the part of wildlife eating beeing dangerous tho. It just doesn't seem to be a problem caused by the average Chinese person (I'm basing this statement on the information provided in this video)
manuel, not the meaning of racist but ok
They just don't eat them they also use them for medicine because they believe certain exotic animal parts cure illnesses (traditional Chinese medicine). Which is as dangerous as consuming exotic animals as food.
it's not their eating habits, it's the governments yearn for money that outweighs their concern for people's safety
@@derGerhart dude i saw food stalls in China selling rodent kebab etc. in the streets of China once. Even the poor eat exotic animals. Pangolin body parts are even used as traditional Chinese medicine.
I came from mainland China to the US. I lived in Shanghai which is a good city with not a lot of wild animal consumption. However, I was still disgusted by the wet markets as a kid and I still am.

This is literally what we see in movies and games. We literally witnessed this in real life. It amazes me how helpless the whole world is.
So the wet markets should be stopped and shutdown permanently. And breeding wildlife for consumption should be banned by WWF to protect these animals permanently. I really agree with this

I once heard having markets where you butcher all different kinds of animals in very poor sanitation is not among the best of things to do.
And now the whole world knows this to be true.
Who would’ve thought?
I saw a doctor in a video from 2003 talking about the SARS outbreak. He said that if the markets were not shut down then SARS would come back in another form. And here we are now, with covid-19.
I’m Chinese and I’m honestly so disgusted by this. How anyone could even step into one of those markets without vomiting is beyond me, and here we are now with a new coronavirus. Who would’ve thought? 🙄😖🤦♀️

In my veterinary science class I learned about just how dangerous these kinds of markets can be. It’s only a matter of time till the next one happens.
Exactly. I'm surprised there haven't been more Well I known outbreaks
@@ecclairmayo4153 Because viruses don't mutate in a single day. It requires years of contact for a virus to mutate into a different strain to infect a different species. The strain of coronavirus which is found in bats can not infect humans. It can not stick to our cells. So it had to mutate in order to infect humans. And this particular strain of coronavirus (covid19) is showing a remarkable rate of mutation. Bats>> pangolins >> Humans >> and now a positive case in a dog. Plus now we have two strains of covid19 infecting humans. And all of this happened in a matter of a few months. Covid19 is a wakeup call for humanity. We have to change our lifestyles. No matter how technologically advanced we become, our existence can still be threatened by these tiny genetic codes which are not even considered as living organisms.
These places need to be regulated. They need to be kept clean. If this sort of food is for the wealthy, then they can afford the mark up.
Rose Ban yea sadly there perfect breeding grounds for a virus because markets in China they don’t wear gloves and people touch the food at them all the time and don’t buy it so hundreds of people could be touching food before it’s actually bought 🤮
@@someguynamedelan Thankfully the gov't banned this kinda markets nationwide due to the breakout of COVID-19.

I once visited one of these wet markets in 2019 Guangzhou, China. Different kinds of wild animals being butchered out in the open in unsanitary environments.
Paul Kaunda you’re not in Texas, are you ?
And did you get coronavirus
😢
Markets like that are pretty much self regulating, if you sell rotten food and follow no hygiene then people will get sick and not buy from you so you have to close. The issue is the meat/animals they are butchering. They are not bred for eating, they are wild and by western standards unusual animals. That is why unusual and new diseases come from places like China and Africa. Western food production for all its failures does produce alot of food that is safe for us to eat and its only when we do things like feeding cows to other cows to make food cheaper that we encounter problems like mad cow disease (vcjd)

Miss you Nani, although I will never be sad for you, you taught me life and I know that you lived it well.
This didn’t age well
Once you start affecting the entire world with your recklessness then it’s time to be shut down completely
Countries should sanction china when this is over, tell the CCP that we won't stand for such negligence.
*AMEN TO THAT*
Greed
they can't comprehend this :)
I was today years old when I learned that you could farm bears.
Lime it’s absolutely sick
Lime if u think that’s gud than ur a monster
@@thegreatstar8177 I never said it was good, how did you even draw that conclusion?
@@maraisfan4life517 indeed, the whole thing is sick. I'm not a vegan or anything, but I do believe in humane treatment of animals, this is far from that.
probably for their bear bile which some people stupidly believe could cure cancer, cold, etc. In fact bear bile can only help dissolve gallstones and treat liver disease
R u sure about that now
A year and a half later, we now have more perspective. We now know that COVID almost certainly didn't come from the wet markets. This video is a good example of how polished info graphics can lead us to wrong conclusions.
Where did you get this info from?
@@diegop7749 Conspiracy theories probably
@@noahjackl2240 This comment too has aged very well, and you are likely to be a Chinese!
@@diegop7749 from all over
look into it even most main news sites had storys that it has a over 70% chance of being from a lad
the very lab that is in wohan
most of the workers died the main lady talked about for a few months RIGHT after it got out saying she rushed to her lad cuz they were working on covid
that lab was known for having bad heath rules and didnt have good PPE
The words “wet market” sound like a disease
Those people eat anything, disgusting!
So true
Uh theres wet markets in Singapore and I can promise you we are nothing compared to the uncivilised China
Jonathan D'Orazio it doesn’t
@@themysteriousbo8581 haven't seen any disease outbreak originate in singapore...
Simple answer: don't eat everything you see
@Sony Saini 😂 lol
Sony Saini there is NO need to be racist. period.
True

Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying:
O people, Allah is Good and He therefore, accepts only that which is good. And Allah commanded the believers as He commanded the Messengers by saying: "O Messengers, eat of the good things, and do good deeds; verily I am aware of what you do" (xxiii. 51). And He said: 'O those who believe, eat of the good things that We gave you" (ii. 172)
So eat and drink which is good, healthy, pure and lawful.
This didn’t age well.
Watching this 3 years after initial lockdown, millions of deaths and countless other consequences……..
If after this pandemic people around the world do not yet understand the true meaning of how our reckless, poor decisions can potentially affect LITERALLY everyone around us...we're doomed.
I agree, bring manufacturing back or move it to a country that actually has regulations. Restrict travel to and from China during flu season, every year. Make China pay for any future diseases that come from their people. Be a nice place to start since the last 3 terrible viruses have originated in China.
@@extraordinarilybasic3250 "bring manufacturing back or move it to a country that actually has regulations."
Regulations? That's called Communistic in America. That's why Trump got elected. Because those people want less regulations. Also, the Dems are under the thumb of the corporations who want less regulations as well. A lose-lose situation.
We're Doomed.
This is restricted to China and its irresponsible government. This isn't happening all around the world.
I asked someone why they don't just stop selling bats for example, apparently the government have tried but too much money in it so itll only appear in the black market anyway. Also the chinese government have been telling them that the virus came from the Americans. They live in a delusional bubble.

I am not a racist, but they have to get responsibility at least on this horrible whole world pandemic.
Nothing racist here
They should stop eating dogs and cats, no matter how many people eat it it still creates diseases.

@@derekwampum8861 corona : you too
So, in short, China really needs to overhaul their food regulations.
exactly
I agree and I want to add they should suffer greatly financially. I'm sure I'm not the only one growling and grumbling about China poisoning other human beings besides their own.
They did in 8:48 what NO ONE has done - provide supporting evidence to RCA. If that ain’t short enough for you, I don’t know what to tell you.
@RCLuv Maybe they'll get it once enough people have died? I dunno.
You explained the reason in just 9 minutes. Kudos
The title blamed China as it should be. I thought they had the guts to stand for what they say.
For how long ?
Makes sense. Most diseases have come from animals that have been farmed for a very long time like cows, chickens and pigs. When you start farming new animals you get their diseases too.
Cow is not new, but there is mad cow disease
Jason S Indeed!
That’s what humans are doing for literally ever domesticated animal
@@yunitap7052 New diseases can come from animals domesticated for a long time, but if you increase the number of domesticated animals, you will multiply the number of new diseases by a lot more.
@@skytrexz3714 yes but we haven't been farming tigers, pangolins and bats for very long.
SARS was a warning which we ignored. Now we got the corona pandemic.
not we CHINA ignored it CHINA!
@@OOOHYEAAAHH Naah...
@@OOOHYEAAAHH YES ,our government was very incompetent in the early days, But now the disease is still breaking out in your western world...
The Black Death was a stronger warning.
Rosa Indica corona is just a second warning, ignore again and will be much worse
Why is nobody mentioning how incredible the video quality is?!?
Well dis didn't age well....
I've been really wondering who are the actual animals here, the ones in the cages? Or the people that are encouraging this kind of industry?
i mean this is everywhere in the world. Mass production animal farms that are supposedly more technologically advanced than these farms still treat their animals like commodities... because the system we live in makes it so.
everyone is an animal. we just so happen to be aware enough to exploit and capitalise on everything around us... including ourselves
Yea. Poor poor animals... things like this just scare me
Both
we have the same thing here in the us with non-wildlife animals. Difference is china has it more out in the open for ppl to see. Non-agriculture ppl in developed countries is rarely exposed to the harsh reality of how chickens / pigs / etc are raised and slaughtered in inhumane ways (unnecessary torture and terrible living conditions) by factory farms for companies like Mcdonalds, Costco, and tyson foods. Activists that tried to expose their cruelty have been sued and threatened with huge fines and decades of jail time.
The people that had those bears in those tiny cages should be feed to those same bears. So basically the rich people's needs led to this.
Billions of pigs and cows are in tiny cages where they can't move just so people can eat meat... but people dont care for some reason.
DarkSamuraiHD they do but can’t realy do anything
DarkSamuraiHD we do the same with pigs cattle chickens exactly the same go to a modern farm
Wuhan military games. Held just before the outbreak. America the most powerful military scored 35th, below small Nations like Finland. They were also housed near the market. This virus was also misdiagnosed as H1N1 early on in the US according to the CDC. All strains of the virus are found in only one country, the US.
The US assassinated an Iranian general without cause. They do horrible testing over the years AND know more about viral outbreaks than any other nations.
Put two and two together. Ability, opportunity and motive means probable cause
@@maul8384 , of course you can do something: stop eating animal products. Anyway not good for your health, the planet and the sentient animals ! Plantbased is a various, healthy and very delicious kitchen - internet is full of starter kits and recepis
Let’s not blame Asians instead let’s blame the government
But why us Asian I have Asian roots ok and respect them
asian is not an ethnicity
Tested positive for covid-19 today. Thank you China🙏🏻
Are u feeling better get well soon 😄😊
I knew that China had a horrific track record on the treatment of animals but this is horrific.
Fully agree, but our western industrial factory farms and slaughter houses are torture chambers too. Look up undercover footage.
agree! 😡
They belive that torture makes the animals taste better
I agreed
I’m so sad . This is terrible. Poor animals. No rights abuse slaughter.
When you strike nature, sometimes nature strikes back
Well Said
You slap nature, and nature causes the near extinction of your species.
Maybe we gotta stop eating animals
And when nature strikes back it is unforgiving

3127 deaths? Right now, 8 months after this video got released, its already over 1 million deaths and still growing every single day...
This is a video that every human being MUST see.
It’s very informative and neutral. It makes you learn that it is the Chinese government whose horrible way of handling its population has led to these repeated outbreaks. It is not the Chinese people who are responsible for this. It is their unfortunate government.
Sending good vibes to all those Chinese people who are concerned with banning these markets and making progress towards a more human society.
Would LOVE to see an updated version of this video

China after a pandemic disease is cured: Let’s go back to selling wildlife animals again
Nature: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?!!
Don't need to teach them not to eat animals. Teach them to improve animal preparation conditions.
Dr. DeadPool I laughed way too hard at this
It was planned years ago and will affect everyone! Please search anglo-saxon mission bill ryan @14:56
xxhalogamer22xx what are you talking about it’s not like they are getting food poisoning they should just stop eating exotic animals
China got karma my guy
theres nothing wrong with using wildlife as a source of food. whats wrong is that its not properly and thoroughly studied and made sure that they are safe for human consumption.

For someone that reads Chinese, that menu is shocking in the varieties of animals being sold as meat. I mean, peacock, fox, wolf...Omigosh!
Kosongz Toh - it’s the fact they have them still alive in cages just before they’re slaughtered for people to eat that annoys me the most
all meat intakes are potentially dangerous
if you criticize them then hopefully you’re vegan or else it’s hypocritical
@@xokhaliah I mean, we've been eating beef and chicken for hundreds of years, so I'm sure it's not that dangerous.
@Kosongz Toh I don't read Chinese. What else does it say?
