Here's What Germany Thinks

From the German Economic News website:

Corona originated in China. In addition, illegal Chinese textile workers played a large part in the virus being able to spread in Italy and then in Europe.

That sounds pretty cut and dried.

Dr. Fauci, on the other hand, seems to think Chinese tourists were the problem:

Is he making excuses for the Chinese? I would not be surprised.

Personally, I would be happy if we could just pin down the source and the means of spread without having to play the blame game. Problem solving usually works best when it focuses on solutions and not on scapegoats.
