I agree! This virus would not have spilled over into humans had humans not encroached deep into the forests, captured bats, placed them in cages above/below other wild animals in close proximity, and sold them as food for people. Really, it was human cruelty to wild animals for profit and a disregard for nature that caused this. It's most likely that the actual person who placed that cage down where they did in a wet market or the person who hunted the animals were ignorant to the risks of microbial spillover events, they were probably carrying out a profitable business tradition out of necessity. It's also possible that a wealthier person or group who owned the business knew about the risks of spillover because of the 2003 SARS epidemic (also zoonotic in origin via bats) but makes good money from the bush-meat trade. We'll probably never know for certain, but either way, the moral of the 2019-2020 COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) story so far is to better educate *ALL* people around the planet to stop operating "wet" markets, enforce restrictions and bans on "wet" markets, expand public healthcare facilities globally (and make them affordable and stocked with reserve equipment for future pandemics), teach and practice sanitation and hygiene every day and encourage others to do so daily as well, and invest in plant-based foods to replace the widespread meat-based diet that so many people practice today. Unfortunately, some people, especially poor people in undeveloped/developing countries or remote areas, can't afford to eat an all-plant based diet or even a partially plant-based diet. To improve this situation and prevent _worse_ pandemics from starting in the future, perhaps all nations should come together and prioritize development of an international society that is dedicated to providing free and open access to quality education, healthcare, sanitation, and food to as many humans as possible (goal: 100% of humanity) while also taking active and drastic measures to curb the meat, bush-meat, and poaching industries' power. Additionally, we all need to come together globally and work *hard* to halt anthropogenic climate-change and global warming, a.k.a the destruction of human civilizations via ecosystem collapses and sea-level rise while also getting back to nuclear arsenal reduction (e.g. nuclear non-proliferation of the large military powers). The most probable and dangerous disasters that humanity will likely see this century are 1. More and Worse Pandemics, 2. Exponentially Worsening Global Warming and Chaotic Mass Migrations due to Sea-Level Rise, 3. World War III (possibly triggered by fascists/dictators coming into power due to mass migrations after sea-level rise scaring people into voting for hardliners/strongmen), 4. A Major Nuclear Weapons Exchange (either accidental or war-related, see risk #3), 4. More Pollution, 5. Serious Asteroid Impact, 6. Man-Made Superbug Pandemic due to Synthetic Biology/Genetic Engineering by a Psychopath, Terrorists, or Hostile States. All of these major global disasters are deeply connected and must all be prevented through immediate international unity, education, pooled resources, and encouragement/motivation to take action now. If the world fails to come together to tackle and prevent these major global risks, then humanity most likely will not survive past this century in any large numbers, or at all.

They should consider staying home from work if they're sick and perhaps getting a flu shot every year.
