“The markets have gone back to operating in exactly the same way as they did before coronavirus,” said a correspondent in Dongguan. “The only difference is that security guards try to stop anyone taking pictures which would never have happened before.”

Sigh.

Trump should propose a permanent travel ban on any nation with a "wet market". These things are a proven cesspool of disease and pandemics.

Whoever said one person can’t change the world never ate an undercooked fruit bat.

Aren’t we also allowing limited flights from China? What’s up with that?!

Of course, even after blessing the rest of the world with a pandemic.

Who actually thought Beijing would learn from this.

Every Trump hating Media SOB and Liberal praising the Chinese Communists should be made to watch Videos of the Chinese torturing Dogs to death like the scene in A Clockwork Orange.

Have they started putting melamine in their food and pet products again too?

I think outside Tier 1 major cites, getting rid of wet markets will be quite a challenge. It’s engrained custom. I’ve been through China, they’re everywhere.

Correct. There’s no rationale for allowing china to exist anymore.

They have been there for quite literally thousands of years.

I pick an entirely different lesson from the one which you have embraced. Communist biological weapons laboratories are really bad.

I don’t listen when idiots try to tell me what to eat. I don’t do that to other people either.

Fine, China. Wet markets open, travel to the US is closed.

You decide.

Wet markets? Look up China’s long history of cannibalism - those sumbitches will eat anything, including each other.
