Why is the no. of coronavirus infected people so high in Wuhan? It looks like a viral bomb blast there. Did it come from the virus research lab nearby?

Since the virus first popped up in Wuhan in people who had visited a local seafood and animal market (called the Huanan seafood market), officials could only say it likely hopped from an animal to humans. In a new study, however, the researchers compared the 2019-nCoV genetic sequence with those in a library of viral sequences, and found that the most closely related viruses were two coronaviruses that originated in bats; both of those coronaviruses shared 88% of their genetic sequence with that of 2019-nCoV.
Based on these results, the authors said the 2019-nCoV likely originated in bats. However, no bats were sold at the Huanan seafood market, which suggests that another yet-to-be-identified animal acted as a steppingstone of sorts to transmit the virus to humans.
A previous study suggested snakes, which were sold at the Huanan seafood market, as a possible source of 2019-nCoV. However, some experts have criticized the study, saying it’s unclear if coronaviruses can infect snakes.” source: Coronavirus cases reach nearly 25,000: Live updates on 2019-nCoV

My mum told me when she was in Vietnam that the people were saying that in China, they were using animals to test out a virus that they (the Chinese scientists) were creating. The lab that was testing out this virus had an animal escape. Therefore the virus has spread to people by it becoming immune to certain things and mutating to be a zoonotic virus.
It’s said in Vietnam that the Chinese government wants world domination and the virus is to kill as many people at possible so that they could distribute the vaccine for heaps amounts of money.
The vaccines are all there and they have the cure, they just don’t want to release it.
Also, she told me the SARS epidemic in 2003 was ALSO made by China and that they had the vaccine for it. Basically, China has so many people that they think it’d be fun to play with people’s lives.
This is all alleged, I’m not a doctor or scientist or a Chinese citizen so I can’t say that it’s 100% true.
