Banned by who? Looking at the relative impact of the virus it seems the US is harder hit. Although the virus appears to be a tragic accident, a weakened US allows other nations to make advances.

That being said, I tend to agree with your assertion.

Surely the rest of the world has the leverage to pressure China to ban wild-animal markets.

There are similar markets in the rest of the word so, no.

There is also no need to ban such markets, but to further regulate what and how things can be sold is reasonable.

One problem often ignored is that because of differences in general wealth it's e.g. not always/every where feasible to require selling only pre-processed (cut apart) meat (and other body parts) as the necessary fridge infrastructure doesn't exist and would be to expansive.
