Sure, but don't they have a vast network of contact tracing? Presumably if a bunch of cases showed up that weren't connected to any other cases because of the lockdowns then that would be a really good indication of where the animal reservoir was located. But they haven't found the animal reservoir yet either, even with all of the lockdowns.
- MichaelZuo 4y agoIf by 'animal reservoir' you mean the intermediary pangolin, or something similar, this 'reservoir' could be as small as 1 animal if it was a spontaneous mutation. Where do you get the idea that there must be a large population of such animals roaming around?
- Teever 4y agoWasn't the intermediate pangolin idea also discredited as exceedingly improbable relatively early in the pandemic?
- MichaelZuo 4y agoCan you link to a source?
- Teever 4y agoNo, I can't, that's why I'm asking a question about it.
- MichaelZuo 4y agoAs far as I can tell authoritative source has ever made an on-the-record comment along those lines. But then again it's impossible to prove a negative.
