Origin:
Some are calling this a myth. SARS was not spread by somebody eating a bat. Somebody ate a wild Civet sold at a game market. Civet’s eat bats naturally, and bats are natural reservoirs of CoVs.
Although we have video footage saying it isn't completely a myth:
A woman eats a whole bat in disturbing footage which has recently surfaced on the internet, as scientists link the deadly #coronavirus to the flying mammals.

An outbreak of a novel coronavirus was initially identified during mid-December 2019 in the city of Wuhan in central China, as an emerging cluster of people with pneumonia with no clear cause. The outbreak was linked primarily to stallholders who worked at the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, which also sold live animals. Chinese scientists isolated a new strain of coronavirus – given the initial designation of 2019-nCoV – which has been found to be at least 70 percent similar in genome sequence to SARS-CoV. With the development of a specific diagnostic PCR test for detecting the infection, a number of cases were confirmed in people directly linked to the market and in those who were not directly associated with it. Whether this virus is of the same severity or lethality as SARS is unclear
The World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledged that the respiratory illness is an emergency in China, but said it is too early to declare it a global one. - Thursday, January 23, 2020 (Evidently they were waiting to see "person to person spread outside of mainland China" before calling it "global") Nyka Alexander explains in this video - Then they finally call it a Worldwide Emergency a week later but that no travel should be inhibited.

In general, coronaviruses spread like the flu:
- Through the air by coughing or sneezing.
- Through close personal contact, such as touching a person or shaking hands.
- By touching a contaminated surface then touching your mouth, nose or eyes.
The same precautions you’d take for the flu generally apply to coronaviruses:
- Wash your hands well and often.
- Cough or sneeze into your sleeve — not into your hands.
- Keep your distance from sick people.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is studying the new virus and may be making specific recommendations if needed. Carole Mathews and Mike Cotey of Employment Security’s Safety Program are monitoring news and will pass on any new information.
