I read a comment where someone suggested the virus originated at the market -- and was then caught by someone who works at the lab.

The interesting thing about that theory is: I don't know how to assess which of those two scenarios is more likely.

A person gets sick after interacting with bats in the area, and then they talk to their virologist friend who works at the Wuhan Virology Institute and suddenly there are a rash of illnesses.

Do we still get to blame the lab for a leak?

Except there's no bats in that area. At least not ones with SARS-CoV2.

There are no bats in Wuhan? I find that hard to believe.

There are no discovered bat populations in the Wuhan region with a SARS-COV2 ancestor, that's more likely.

That the only source of bats infected with a SARS-COV2 relative is in the Yunnan province, that's pretty unlikely.
