Not sure of the scientific aspects however initially testing found 99% genetic correlation of CoVid19 in the Pangolins in the market and human Covid19 - however apparently with broader tests that test not only the genetics but other markers, there is a much lower correlation so maybe the intermediary was not the pangolin - the scientists do agree the original host was a bat but they are not sure if direct transmission could occur without an intermediary.

They are still researching this.

Nope. RNA and DNA don’t have the appropriate qty to be Bat. Initially they thought it was.
Then they checked the Pangolin and thought it was a intermediary. Nope. Even lower %.

The virus has a closer relationship to SARS-CoV-1 with a greater % of markers.

I reckon it came from that youngest kid of Durrell's, home zoo. I guess it could have travelled from Greece.

I think they're a business like any other, & if they qualify "within the rules", nothing more, nothing less, then they, like other businesses deserve assistance.
I think most of them will have spoken to their financiers by now. I've no inside info, but most people would know that most of the cars on a Dealer's lot don't belong to them, they belong to their financier, and with the drop in retail new & used cars creating a decreased amount of retail finance directed to their financier, the interest on their floor plan/dealer loans etc would be crippling.
