Me, too, sigh. Last night I clicked off that Levin guest in disgust. This kind of China bashing right now, imo, is so inappropriate when we're all in the same boat searching for treatments, etc.

I'm also somewhat annoyed by the horror over the "wet markets". In 1950, I moved with my parents to Hawaii and we lived in Honolulu, not far from the Aliwai (sp?) Canal in a neighborhood with Asian neighbors all around. I remember walking with my mother to what might be called a "wet market" to buy fresh meat and produce. I remember the counters laid out with raw chicken, some beef and barrels of swimming fish. Never noticed exotic animals but there were lots caged birds everywhere and I got one for a birthday. My mother was a surgical nurse and she scrubbed us down with a vengeance every night, but at that market we roamed freely eating goodies and samples of god knows what.

My mother said several times during her 100 year life that she considered Asians very clean by nature.
