That did happen. Literally all of the earliest hospitalizations were tied to the wet market. Meanwhile, zero lab employees were amongst the initial hospitalizations.AI Verified (Mar 10, 2026)

The quote is directly about the statement’s core issue: whether the earliest case clustering around the Huanan/wet market indicates where COVID-19 emerged, rather than being a misleading artifact. In context, the commenter is rebutting a claim that the market link was weak, asserting that all of the earliest hospitalizations were tied to the wet market and contrasting that with zero lab employees among the initial hospitalizations. That gives a clear, determinable stance on the complete statement. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/1rpkoz1/comment/o9m7fqb/))

The quote strongly implies support: by saying "all of the earliest hospitalizations were tied to the wet market" and "zero lab employees were amongst the initial hospitalizations," the author is arguing the early market cluster reflects the actual outbreak origin, not merely testing or attention focused there.
