Its not that this originated in China that pisses me off. Its that they had a chance to get on top of it and make a difference and they didn't. Lied about it for too long until it was too late. There needs to be a reckoning when this is all over.
I said predator strikes on any wet markets they let reopen and my thread got whacked.

There are valid assumptions as to arguing why it could have started in China.
It also says they’re not sure and some of the later ones suggest it might have not originated there.

How would WWI spread h1n1 if it started in China?

In 1993, Claude Hannoun, the leading expert on the 1918 flu for the Pasteur Institute, asserted the former virus was likely to have come from China. It then mutated in the United States near Boston and from there spread to Brest, France, Europe's battlefields, Europe, and the world with Allied soldiers and sailors as the main disseminators.[31] He considered several other hypotheses of origin, such as Spain, Kansas and Brest, as being possible, but not likely. Political scientist Andrew Price-Smith published data from the Austrian archives suggesting the influenza had earlier origins, beginning in Austria in early 1917

People downvoting me for pointing out that the vast majority of bad viruses and plagues started in China
Probably because they think its rayciss. And the fact that China is a country not a race makes the raycissimness of it even worse.

I think the Spanish Flu did not originate in China. Possibly in Kansas
There are 3 schools of thought:
Kansas
France
North China
A lot of scholarly work linking it to China has been done over the past 30 years. China, has of course, fought back on that idea with considerable effort.
We will never know for sure.

Even without the Spanish Flu 14 of the 20 on that charted originated in China

That doesn't say how it got out of China. A country with a minimal role in the war.

I acknowledge that most of them likely originated in China. I’m saying you are making definite conclusions based off of limited evidence especially with regards to the Spanish Flu.

A political scientist that says it started in Austria is your authority? You’re really stretching to support your OP and not doing a particularly good job either.

Does it really surprise you that the country with the largest population is where many plagues and epidemics originate?
In the cities there people are on top of each other. Its the perfect environment for shite to spread.

Yet you rely on a chart that said it started in China.

I didn't make the chart. I wouldn't have included it if I had. I just thought it was interesting.
