Abstract
The suspected role of the wildlife trade in the COVID-19 pandemic and the risk of new emerging infectious diseases in humans have received widespread attention since the emergence of COVID-19.1–3 A range of measures to prevent future pandemics have been suggested, from a global ban of commercial trade in wildlife to bans of wild animals for human consumption. Although emergency bans that enable rapid responses and adaptation can be a component of risk management, questions persist regarding the appropriateness of broad international bans in the context of zoonosis and pathogenic risks emerging from human consumption and use of wildlife.
