Why do these people eat anything that moves? This is not medieval times! Why are they not in the 21st century? They eat dogs, rats bats anteaters, you name it. Ever see a picture of their wet markets! We could get this again. We should ban them coming here maybe then they'll get SMART!

Overpopulation.

India as well, but a large proportion of the population is at least vegetarian...

Yes, they are actually the Chinese citizens for the most part, coming back from Europe and US.

Wet markets date from a time when people were literally starving after the Cultural Revolution, the government encouraged people to make money any way they could.


Most of the world aren't picky eaters. That doesn't make them barbarians ,necessarily, it just means Americans are spoiled.


Any kind of animal husbandry/factory farming makes people vulnerable to zoonotic viruses, including in the US.

Exactly. We are having some molds designed and built there and we still have our every other day meetings. Our timeline to get the tools stateside has not changed.

As I've said before, if you're willing to believe all the things that the Chinese government controlled media says, I got a whole lot of organs to sell you.
