Scientists say the sale of the animals in wildlife markets should be strictly prohibited to minimise the risk of future outbreaks.
Pangolins are the most-commonly illegally trafficked mammal, used both as food and in traditional medicine.
In research published in the journal Nature, researchers say handling these animals requires "caution".
And they say further surveillance of wild pangolins is needed to understand their role in the risk of future transmission to humans.

Lead researcher Dr Tommy Lam of The University of Hong Kong said two groups of coronaviruses related to the virus behind the human pandemic have been identified in Malayan pangolins smuggled into China.
"Although their role as the intermediate host of the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak remains to be confirmed, sale of these wild animals in wet markets should be strictly prohibited to avoid future zoonotic [animal to human] transmission," he told BBC News.

Yeah I posted this a few days ago
Apparently the virus jumped from a bat to the pangolin and some nasty frick decided that looked like it would go great with a side of rice

The Chinese have a culture of eating and medicating with some nasty shite as a result of living under communism for so long.

No chinaman, eating the pangolin ain’t gonna do nothing for that little Asian penis.

Looks like a cross between a possum and an anteater. Why in the hell would somebody eat that?
I knew a couple of people from Hong Kong who.said that people from Mainland China were nasty. I just figured it was an LSU vs. Bama type thing, but I'm beginning to think they knew what they were talking about.

Scientists are saying they can trace genetic markers of the coronavirus that indicates it first came from bats and was transferred to pangolins that then crossed-over to humans.
Bats and pangolins were being eaten by humans in the Wuhan markets. Disgusting.

Rednecks in the US eat all kinds of possum, squirrel, nutria, etc. What makes this animal more of a disease risk? Is it different cooking (maybe not cooking) methods?

frick just last month before all this started my pangolin guy sold me 80 pounds of select cuts from out his rickshaw on the cheap- he requested I pay him in 200 rolls of Toilet Paper, the exact roll count I had in storage.
Anyone here ever use Pangolin scales to wipe?

The rest of the world needs to shun China and close their borders to any travelers coming from China to isolate them until they put a stop to these wet markets that are apparently a frequent source of dangerous and highly contagious viruses making the jump from animals to humans
