Zoonotic Crossover Argument

Daszak’s favourite claim  (edit - favourite of course is: whoever disagrees with me is a conspiracy theorist - so second favourite ...) is: We can safely estimate that between one and seven million people are infected with bat coronaviruses each year  (in South East Asia alone). 
 People are infected, so the story goes, on a daily basis .. by undiscovered viruses in wildlife in emerging disease hotspots . 
 Why are they emerging ?  The hotspots are the same as they ever were - the only emerging being done is by the Zoonati. 
 Any one of these could be the next ‘Disease X’ – potentially even more disruptive and lethal than COVID-19. 
 Indeed.  So, 7mil divided by 365 = 19 178 potential Disease Xs every day! 
 The Message is: 
 Be afraid. Zoonotic crossover events are lurking/happening around every corner, in every human interaction with animals - from bats to backyard chickens.  A Disease X like Covid was always ready to explode - which we warned you about - btw .  Now get ready for the next one ... 
 But we’re all to blame – we talked about pandemics professionally, but we should have shouted louder . Some people did, but they were called scaremongerers , accused of hyping it up.  Look at where we are now ." 
 Don’t be too hard on yourself Pete - you shouted long n loud from the world’s loudest platforms. You totally out-shouted the other voices (Prof Ebright) warning that your behaviour was bound to unleash a pandemic.  You did your absolute best.

 When the history of Covid is written - no-one can take that away from you. 
 On the upside, where you are now is a rich-getting-richer WHO Celebrity Scientist - which is not a bad going for a boy from Bangor University ...  
 Furthermore, if you get your way, there's still plenty more where that came from ... 
 A pandemic such as this one isn’t a once-in-a-lifetime tragedy . 
 The scariest thing is how confident you are that people won't find out the truth.  Or is that you don't care, coz you have the power to side-line them even if they do ....? 
 So what are the Zoonati's main points: 
  (a): Any one of those 20k crossover events per day caused Covid. 
  (b): Shut up (if you're a non-Zoonati) 
 (c)   The big lesson to learn from this one is: we have to spend the money to properly prepare now. Give us one or two billion dollars to transition the world to a new-normal-lockdown-compliant-get-your-6-monthly-jab-surveillance mentality - whilst we collect & engineer even more deadly diseases at the Bat Lab. 
 That’s just the free-world entry-level version.  Centralize global control.  Hands up any globo-politicians that would like to wield that kind of data/authority over the masses … going forward ? 
 We estimate a nine to one return on investment, at least ...and that's without including the cost of Covid. That's a 900% return for investors into Daszak/WIV Inc!  Wow, sounds tempting. 
 The problem is that it's hard (for EcoHealth/WIV) to convince people to fund a big project that would cost one or two billion dollars when these truly global pandemics are not common.  (super-rare actually - we’ll get there soon) 
 I worry that we’re not going to change. Don’t worry!  It’s changing.  You've irreversibly changed the world Pete!  How many of us can say that?
