why do a lot of diseases often start in china?
<|assistant|>
China is a large and populous country with many people living in close proximity in urban centers. With over a billion people in such close proximity, it makes it easier for infectious diseases to spread quickly. Additionally, due to the high population and the number of people who live in poverty in some areas of the country, sanitation standards and access to proper health care are lower in certain areas of China than in other places in the world. This can also contribute to the spread of infectious diseases.
