LAHORE: With COVID-19 outbreak killing over 5,400 people globally, former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Akhtar has lashed out at those responsible for making the coronavirus infect humans and blamed China solely for the outbreak.

"I don't understand why you have to eat things like bats, drink their blood and urine and spread some virus across the globe...I'm talking about the Chinese people. They have put the world at stake. I really don't understand how you can eat bats, dogs, and cats. I'm really angry," Akhtar said in a video posted on his Youtube channel.







"The whole world is at risk now. The tourism industry has been hit, the economy is badly affected and the whole world is going towards a lockdown. I'm not against the people of China but I'm against the law of animals. I understand this may be your culture but this is not benefitting you now, it is killing humanity. I'm not saying you boycott the Chinese but there has to be some law. You cannot go on and eat anything and everything," he added.

Coronavirus, which originated in China's Wuhan city, has so far spread to more than 100 countries, infecting over 1,30,000 people. In Pakistan the number of positive cases reached 28 on Saturday.

Many sporting events, including the Indian Premier League (IPL) and Pakistan Super League (PSL), have been affected by the disease which has now been declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO).

While the IPL 2020, which was originally scheduled to start from March 29, has been postponed till April 15, the playoff stage of PSL has been curtailed and will be played behind closed doors. "The biggest reason for anger is PSL...Cricket returned to Pakistan after so many years, the PSL was happening in our country for the first time now even that is at risk. The foreign players are leaving, it will take place behind closed doors," said Akhtar.

The total number of confirmed coronavirus cases across India has crossed 80 while two people have lost their lives due to the deadly disease. But Akhtar did not have the information and added: "God forbid the virus doesn't reach India. There are around 130 crore people there. I've been in touch with my friends in India and wishing them well."

In PSL, there will be no play-offs and the top four teams will now play semi-finals and then the final on March 17 and 18. The final was originally scheduled to be held on March 22. "I've also heard that IPL has been postponed till April 15. The hotel industries, travel industries, broadcasters everything will incur losses because of this," he said.

The former Pakistan pacer also called on the world authorities to come out with a new animal protection law so that such diseases don't resurface in the future.

Also snakes , insects and rats.
Chinese eat everything and have been for generations.
Corona virus is overly publicised when it's just another flu which at worse can cause pneumonia.
I had double pneumonia and I am still here .
 
His worry about PSL is understandable.

But Why is he worried about IPL ?
 
He has a point and it needs to be said.

And this isn't the first time animal to human viruses have come out of China, or more specifically those disgusting wet markets.

China needs to wake up and start adapting some decent health & safety and animal rights laws.
 
Spiders, centipedes, raw alive monkey brain, alive duck embryos, etc.
Basically anything that moves, swims, flies, crawls, burrows. Eat it. The problem I think is that the animals most of us eat like, like chicken, sheep etc over centuries means we have developed a symbiotic relationship. This has led to us becoming inured to any infections those animals might carry. However when people eat exotic or animals that rarely are eaten the danger is new diseases come into contact with the human ecosystem that can can lead to transfer/mutation. You can see the results of this with COVID-19 in China.

He is worried not for PSL or IPL, he was about to launch a massive business of sports accessories, with some other guy, totally online, Covid-19 has left the manufacturers off for months, public demand low due to uncertainty of income and spending power for atleast foreseeable future, No supply.

His plans have been postponed, hence his frustration here...

I do agree with the “bats” and “blood” and “dogs”, utterly disgusting thing to do...

I see :-)
 
If India gets a outbreak like China did, with a population of nearly 1.4 billion tightly packed together along with Bangladesh would lead to a situation resembling a nuclear catastrophe. Pakistan would get radiated to death. So I can see why he is worried.

By the way the city I live in has huge Chinese student population. Muppets are all walking around with face masks. We could have a break out here. I am taking caution. Carry a hand sanitizer and use it all the time. And as a rule stay 10 feet away from any eyelids at funny angles.

Better safe then sorry.
 
Attention whoring as usual, what about Ebola, mers, bubonic plague etc

That's underlying racism
 
Shoaib Akhter is one of the most famous but talentless sportsman out there, he is just a male version of Veena Malik and Meera .
