Let's hear your conspiracy theories about the Coronovirus. Was this an engineered virus or one that was of natural origin?

Natural origin. A bat virus that jumped into the human species, probably via an intermediate host animal.

Stop insinuating conspiracy, OP!
Despite internet rumors to the contrary, the new coronavirus arose from natural causes and was not concocted in a lab, according to scientists who conducted a detailed genomic examination of the virus.
SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 illness, shows zero evidence of being artificially engineered, reported a team who published their findings March 17 in Nature Medicine.

Yes. Why entertain conspiracy theories when we have facts and timelines?

And, why would China “engineer” a virus that killed only the most medically compromised and old? Makes no sense.

It's from natural origin, then it got modified into the bat and human bodies.

Curious, if it can jump from animal to human, can it reverse and be transmitted from human to animal ?

Possibly. Human influenza viruses can jump from people into pigs, and sometimes birds. I don't see any reason why other viruses can't sometimes manage the same trick.
