These chinese people like to eat strange things,

Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses that are common among animals. In rare cases, they are what scientists call zoonotic, meaning they can be transmitted from animals to humans,

The 2002-2003 SARS epidemic, which infected 8,000 people and killed nearly 800, was believed sparked by the slaughter and consumption of exotic animals at `wild flavor’ restaurants in Guangdong Province China.

We aren’t talking subsistence `bushmeat’ here, but exotic and expensive dishes prepared for the wealthy, including: pangolin, cobra, tiger, bear, monkeys,dogs, cats, bats, and palm civets.
In Vietnam, the local dish called Tiết Canh – or raw blood pudding – is one of them. The recipe varies – and while raw duck blood is most often used, other dishes may use pig blood, or even bat’s blood.
Died of poisoning from eating pudding bat after severe abdominal pain and diarrhea several times, the victim is the former director of a department in Bac Lieu. The incident is being investigated functional forces clarified.


i don't understand why someone would enjoy eating raw bat blood

Coz they're quite foolish, not because of the kind of meat...that's fair game because we have different cultures but for the risk involved. But some black people with low self-esteem will have you believe that bonoboism is an exclusively African trait
