Did you know a virus has halted Chinese wildlife trade?

February 13, 2020

Wildlife trade in China was rampant due to their desire for traditional medicines and exotic foods.

In what sounds like it came from a doomsday novel, a market in a Chinese province has been ground zero for a new virus which has spread to humans. The fear caused by the virus has crippled travel and shutdown entire cities.

The market, located in the city of Wuhan, had snakes, pangolins, and porcupines available for sale.

Activists are calling for the ban on wildlife trade to be made permanent, saying the lack of regulation is systemic and could lead to another similar situation.

Story time: What happens when the entire population of the worlds most populous country are forced to stay home for fear of becoming infected?

What happens to the airline industry? The services industry?

What if this culling, instead of removing humans, is removing unsustainable businesses/practices, like the wildlife trade?

Could there be a resurgence? Would quality businesses then thrive from lack of competition, surging to the top and leading to new levels of growth?

A renaissance of Chinese businesses? The Chinese government could and would subsidize these ventures, leading to their international dominance. 

And what would a world look like where China was the leading technological power, instead of the United States?
