Why do viruses always start in other animals? What stops them from starting in humans?

>>	Anonymous Fri Apr 3 23:41:52 2020 No.11531163 >>11531131 Because to other animals defense system it's not virus.

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 4 08:30:46 2020 No.11531969 My question is why do viruses harm thier host? It would make more sense if they didn't allowing the host to thrive and thus pass the virus on to others. If the virus kills off all its hosts then it is actually securing its own demise.

It's not that theres something in humans that prevents it. It's that often times with animal agriculture, the captive animal conditions are atrocious and can cause disease. This is just another zootic disease in the list of many that have occurred this way until now

It's the immune system overreacting the problem. Even reservoir hosts have their immune system fight the viruses. I get it you are joking, but if the immune system didn't exist, the viruses would "melt" your entire body through lysis in due time.

This is a thing, but is limited to a few viruses.
The 1918-19 influenza pandemic, that disproportionately killed off the young, is an example.
