Banning the eating of "wild animals", ,doesn't really address the problem, though, does it?

It's the eating of disease carrying animals that's the problem.

The animals we raise, like cattle, sheep, rabbits, pigs, horses etc,, their ancestors were wild once, and they could quickly revert to the wild again if set free and left to their own devices.

Humans need to eat grass-eating animals to get any kind of nutritional value from their meat.

Not cats, dogs, bats, snakes or other carnivorous animals.

If the Chinese were really serious about adressing the COVID problem, they'd address their wet market and the hygiene of their farming practices.
