Lotta stuff here saying nature is cause but wouldn't be impossible to drop a virus off at a wet market. It's bad/perfect timing to do so. It's also winter when immune systems are compromised and when most outbreaks occur...

I took a class called China 2020 when they were putting a lot of emphasis on this year. My classmates and I got to spend our 2 week spring break writing a 15pg paper because regular class workload was intense
China’s leadership expected that economic growth in 2020 would be a celebratory event, marking a doubling of the economy’s size over the past decade. The new coronavirus, however, has obliterated those forecasts.
Even with a major fiscal stimulus and interest rate cuts, estimates for 2020 growth vary from 1 percent to 4 percent against the original target of 6 percent.
By contrast, the 2002–2003 economic recovery from the SARS virus was V-shaped, as China made up the entirety of its short-term losses by quickly tapping strong consumer demand in the West. China was relatively unaffected by the 2008 financial crisis, when global production and supply networks continued to function, enabling it to maintain rapid growth.

Following the outbreaks of SARS and the H5N1 flu, the United States and China launched initiatives such as the Collaborative Program on Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases and a U.S.-China Health Care Forum to establish best practices and dialogue on economic and policy issues impacting global health. Then, as should be the case now, both countries recognized that there are significant opportunities to learn from each other despite their different political and economic systems.

The official manufacturing purchasing managers index tumbled to 35.7 in February from 50 in January, indicating a deep contraction. February’s reading from the National Bureau of Statistics on Saturday was the first official data for a full month of economic activity in China since the coronavirus began affecting the economy in late January.
The index dropped to 38.8 in November 2008, when the financial crisis prompted steep losses on Wall Street and sent shockwaves through the global economy. The 50 mark separates expansion from contraction.

Covid19 is as contagious as SARS, but SARS only had 8000 cases. Current world politics and globalization has caused covid19 to explode more than it should have been able to. If this is nature it was terrible timing politically. Family friend who is a nurse of 35yrs is saying this will be around this Fall, and it's possible it can continue to reoccur like MERS until a vaccine is both developed and distributed.
walking, didn't you also say this? I recently learned that Germany was the first to alert the EU about recent alarming business deals with China.
Check out China GDP with Trump in office.
A virus released by the underground almost makes sense
