#1 Anywhere? Better shut down those newsrooms until we are sure they weren't the source...

#2 The chicom government actively protected the virus when it was still vulnerable and could have been extinguished easily.

Without the chicom government the Chinese virus could never have made the transition from a biological oddity to a pandemic pathogen.

The chicoms lied and oppressed and censored, and people died.

#3 No.
A Chinese virus doesn't come from Venezuela.
That would be Venusian.

#5 The racist Orange Man is not thinking 'globally.' Forget MAGA. Thank you CNN, Bill & Melinda, WHO, World Bank, and others for reminding us of the greater global issue.

#7 "It could have come from anywhere?"

No, zero COVID-19 case seems to have come from China. There was a Hong Cong Flu. Fiji measles plague. Spanish flu (originated in China), Russian flu,...

It is good to pinpoint the suspected origins of a pandemic from an epidemiological point. If one knows the origins, then one can look at cultural practices and habits that might have led to the spread and vector patterns of the disease. Knowing the origins can prevent further disease spread.

For example, the recent epidemic of the Ebola virus seems to have originated in West Africa. The spread of the disease appears to be related to certain practices by people at funerals and how the deaths were handled.

Immigration and travel patterns are important to understanding and controlling the spread of diseases. Advocating immigration control to halt diseases does not make a person xenophobic.

Chris quit being a jerk and shilling for the left and wake up.

#9 Can we all finally admit the media is complete trash, paid spokesmen for the CCCP and not worthy of any pity as they slowly die?

#10 Chris Cuomo's right - let's call it the Chink Virus instead!

#11 Why of course, Fredo, it COULD have come from any where. Any where they have unsanitary wet markets down the block from Bio warfare labs, with significant numbers of the population mass spitting at doorways and entrances, along with the, um, challenging pollution.

Let's not forget the corrupt, authoritarian regime that believes 5 lies are always superior to 1 truth headed by a ruthless though not altogether perceptive Winnie the Pooh look alike. So, yes Fredo I suppose it just might have come from any where. Good call.

#15 Reporters should be forced to wear patches indicating who pays them off. Make them look like NASCAR with the Chinese flag, the Palestinian Flag, the old Soviet flag on their clothes.
