I’m not sure how you come up with that comment if you actually read the text, especially the highlighted area. “live animal markets in China are still present, allowing animal-to-human transfer to once again happen.” If China had learned anything from SARS, there is a good chance COVID would not have happened. The Chinese government is rightfully the one to take the blame for causing this global catastrophe.
If I had the answer to that I’d be the director of the CDC. However the fact that these animal markets created a new corona virus in the past (SARS) and the same style markets were still open YEARS later shows a complete disregard for sanitary conditions from the Chinese government.
What surprises you here? You did not know that SARS was one of coronaviruses?

Are we 100% sure that it is because of these live animal markets?

That is correct, but during the 1970s , millions of Chinese died of starvation, which is why the country decided to allow live animal markets.
