what about recombination between snakes and bats?

that's less conspiracy fueld than other methods but ig uess

From that blog though

The high sequence similarity of INS1378 to a SARS spike protein (2; IPAK Confirmed).

That causes sensitivity when introduced as a vaccine.

This refutes that blog.

But ncov2019 uses spike protein, which causes sensitivity

2019-nCoV S shares 98% sequence identity with the S protein from the bat coronavirus RaTG13, with the most notable variation arising from an insertion in the S1/S2 protease cleavage site that results in an “RRAR” furin recognition site in 2019-nCoV (19), rather than the single arginine in SARS-CoV (fig. S5)

The high affinity of 2019-nCoV S for human ACE2 may contribute to the apparent ease with which 2019-nCoV can spread from human-to-human (1), however, additional studies are needed to investigate this possibility.
