CAN any of our fellow readers answer/comment with certainty, my and others’ doubts as to Corona Virus transmission, as follows.

1: Can the virus be caught by animals (dogs, cats, others), not have / show symptoms, and yet pass it onto humans?

2: Is it a "certainty" the virus is "land-based" and not in the global atmosphere, descending with weather conditions onto land?

3: Are we to believe once the virus dissipates, we are safe to return to social cohesion (as in China soon) as if a fraction of society are still "undetected" carriers of the virus? Surely such a virus would easily/quickly spread again.

4: Should the worlds leaders process any type of monetary fines / ramifications against China (as it started there), costing the global finance trillions /loss of life, yet to be numbered in total?

Global countries are not the sceptre of their own power nowadays, but connected by global economy / politics / social awareness, and if they cause severe issues in that Global family, should be judged as deemed fit, by their fellow countries.
