The world is so vast and includes so much more beyond just little humans. Any and all mutations could happen just as easily in the wilderness, on farms, in the cities among rats in dumpsters, or even in the intestines of the hyper-sanitized mask-wearing vaccinated posh media folks of Manhattan. IMO the mouth farts from corporate media are far more problematic than any real or manufactured scamdemic as they, servants of the ruling class, are the ones who always "ruin it for the rest of us".
