8. You know I am wondering if the source might really be something from the rivers and or lakes.

I know, they found a related virus inside pangolins and pangolins mainly eat ants and termites but on the other hand pangolins also will eat other insect larva if they find them and they do swim and so since this was at a fish market maybe the real source is something in the water? Maybe naturally found inside an insect larva for example that also infected the pangolins but also that a fish ate and then people ate the fish with the same virus thus it infected humans as well as the pangolins?
