It's just the more articles I read about this thing and when I go back and think about the way it was initially handled by China, that's where my mind goes.

It's not completely out of the question, but to me it's just a numbers game. There are probably hundreds (thousands?) of coronaviruses that make the jump from animals to humans every year, but they stop there because they're not ideal for human-to-human transmission. When one finally does, it seems very unlikely to be natural because it IS unlikely. That doesn't mean that it's definitely unnatural, though.
