Well damn

Covid really is the "one size fits all" virus, huh

[Fish 6,073]

my question is how did they get it

Oh god it's crossing into animals now    this is exactly what we don't want

Edit: I didn't know it had already been found in great apes and felines previously! Hopefully it doesn't transmit from animals to humans

I was just reading about wild deer testing positive for covid here in Canada... they're recommending people wear masks if coming in contact with them/their fluids (hunters I assume). It's crazy!

Omg I need some sleep. But yes, I was just thinking about how bad it can be if a virus mutates to be transferred through birds, rodents etc because they become super spreaders

And then it mutates within an animal specie..than transfers back to humans 

Or is this just fiction

The other day a former local school teacher was in our store and he was saying how "viruses don't skip species this fast unless it was manufactured!"
