So think the Corona virus was man made.
no - I believe it is a strain that came from consumption of reptiles in China. Nevertheless, virologists and WHO and others have said for years that sooner or later a virus will come along that we have not seen before. Here it is.
That being said I am not fearful of it myself. It is unlikely to be fatal to otherwise strong healthy people. I have not seen info or statistics about it yet but I believe the vast majority of those who have died with this "novel coronavirus" are either elderly or very young.
