Download or read book The Chinese Year of the Flying Rat written by Peter a. J. Holst MD and published by Peter A.J. Holst MD PhD. This book was released on 2020-02-02 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Aug 2018 there have been outbreaks of African swine fever in several provinces of China. Up to 200 million pigs have been culled or died due to the disease, while pork output felt by 30%. At the end of 2019, there was a first outbreak of corona virus in Wuhan, which has since been established to be the source of this virus. After the 2013 SARS epidemic, which spread from Hong Kong, Chinese virologists warned earlier that batborne CoVs will re-emerge to cause the next disease outbreak. China is a likely hot spot. Bats live in proximity to humans and farms. The ability to fly of these flying rats makes them wide-ranging, which helps in spreading viruses, and their excreta can spread disease. Bats are host to a higher proportion of zoonoses than all other mammals. It is high time for humans to adopt different eating habits and no longer trade with wildlife. The oldest civilizations in the world have emerged in China. The Chinese government's decision to close live markets (forever) is very good. McDonald and KFC also do a lot of damage. Grasslands and grazing animals have an enormous ability to hold carbon. Agriculture can produce better vegetables and fruit as food for us than the corn and soybeans with which we now fatten and lock up the animals in factory farms to be eaten by us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Aug 2018 there have been outbreaks of African swine fever in several provinces of China. At the end of 2018, the total amount of culled animals was 650,000. China's pigs herd, by far the world's largest, was estimated then at 360 million animals. The pigs should be half by the end of 2019 from a year earlier as an epidemic of African swine fever (ASF) sweeps through the world's top pork producer. Up to 200 million pigs have been culled or died due to the disease, while pork output felt by 30%. Production may take more than 5 years to recover to previous levels before the deadly outbreaks as challenges including a lack of solutions to prevent the disease and a lack of capital will restrict restocking.At the end of 2019, there was a first outbreak of corona virus in Wuhan, which has since been established to be the source of this virus. After the 2013 SARS epidemic, which spread from Hong Kong, Chinese virologists warned earlier that batborne CoVs will re-emerge to cause the next disease outbreak. China is a likely hot spot. Bats account for a quarter of mammalian species, rodents are 50 percent, and there's the rest of the mammals with us. Bats live on every continent, in proximity to humans and farms. The ability to fly of these flying rats makes them wide-ranging, which helps in spreading viruses, and their excreta can spread disease. Bats are host to a higher proportion of zoonoses than all other mammals.Bats and rodents have been spreading diseases in particular when the most intelligent mammals, which we are as humans, fertilized animals artificially and fattened them up to eat them en masse to combat world hunger. It is high time for humans to adopt different eating habits and no longer trade with wildlife.
