Am I wrong?

Most viruses that come from birds mainly attack respiratory system. This virus come from bat(corona virus) is more dangerous. I do not understand why these bird viruses mess with human respiratory system...people uses chicken, duck and other bird species as their food sources. Why are these flu viruses can only be discovered on species which most people used as their food and why not on other animals that people do not eat?? Interesting fact isn't it? You are hungry and you eat bat chicken duck and you are infected with flu viruses. All human beings on earth eat chicken and everyone knows it!!!!!! right?! I think flu viruses are perfect specimens that can be implemented inside bird's body...I may be wrong just my noob theory....hope this crisis is over soon!

    Easy access, fresh air and fewer anti-bodies. Species is often irrelevant

    Why are these flu viruses can only be discovered on species which most people used as their food?

    Wrong premisse. Animals we don eat have viruses too. Influenza mainly develops by jumping between pigs, chickens and humans - which we stupid humans keep together in too short distances from eachother and in too big numbers

    Personally I'm vegan and to be honest I quite seriously resent the fact that if the world was vegan this would never have happened, and yet people are STILL EATING MEAT! What's the effing issue, seriously?
