Scientists have confirmed that the epicenter of the deadly coronavirus outbreak which has infected more than 2700 people and killed at least 81, began in Wuhan, China. The virus first jumped from animals to humans inside the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in the heart of city. The market sold live animals including wolf pups, foxes, rats and peacocks. Other wildlife sold at the market, which has since been shuttered, included crocodiles, giant salamanders, snakes, porcupines and camel meat.

The wet market which includes live animals for sale has been said that they are what started the outbreak. I think that they should close the wet market if not done already because that is where it started and more people will get the virus if they get their food there.
