It actually is linked to snakes. I didn’t think a virus would make a leap like that but it did.

And they eat snakes too. :(
I have no particular concern what a country’s people find tasty, even if it’s quite odd to me.
But it seems rats and bats and snakes are transmitters of some pretty devastating viruses.
And I think HIV came from a monkey..though how it got to humans..i don’t want to know

Not snakes. Bats. The genome is published. Most likely course was bat to civet to human.
