If we are able to create a resolution to stop the transfer of infectious diseased between wild animals and humans, that should be a priority and I fully support it. We already have so many types of current diseases that aren't "new" and we are struggling to contain these and create vaccines. The lifespan of humans could potentially be expanded and the amount of disease related deaths could be dramatically decreased for the future if we could prevent them from spreading to us in the first place.
