Detection of novel coronaviruses in bats in Myanmar

I wish people who use peer-reviewed articles as supporting evidence when making arguments would do a better job of understanding what those peer-reviewed articles are about.

Or, for that matter, of making an argument in the first place. You're not doing that here. You're just noting that a researcher who does research on transmission of coronaviruses from bats to humans, has published research on transmission of coronaviruses from bats to humans. I don't know what conclusion you expect anyone to draw from that.

People can draw their own conclusions. That is what is nice about solid evidence. I will make two notes:

1. Bats can transmit viruses to humans independent of wet markets and research activities and these villagers do travel to cities;

2. This particular research was funded jointly by USA, China and Singapore to monitor possible recurrence of SARS like virus.
