Is there a credible reason why SARS and COVID both came from the same country?

The right official response would've been to not start a cover up (and the rest of the world could've hopefully prepared better). Even the WHO was carrying water for China in Feb 2020.

Because that coronavirus in endemic to bat populations in that part of China. Covid19, for layman's purposes, is basically slightly mutated SARS, and is called SARS-CoV-2. That's why the virology lab is in Wuhan.

Yes, the reason is that a fifth of the world population lives there.
