By your point we should blame monkeys for Aids and maybe racially vilify them ?

Globalisation isn't invented in China. The rest of the world can jolly choose to not have any travel routes to the country. But that's how the western civilization make use of cheap labour to put billions in their pocket.

Or if you take the case of the nursing home in Macquarie where 5 ppl has now died due to a nurse who came back from Iran going straight to work the next day, the nurse wasn't wrong, there was no order for 14 day self quarantine in place at that time, she needed to work to pay bills, her employers weren't going to pay her otherwise. So do you blame the employers, govt or the very nature of capitalist world order we live in ?
Yeah but Ebola and MERS didn't originate in the same country 3 times.
If it happens in the same country 3 times, it raises eyebrow.

Lets look at the AIDS and monkey analogy you gave.
I would certainly blame the monkey if it had the ability to separate right from wrong and was repeatedly putting other species at risk (despite knowing about it).

Yeah, virus is not country dependent but a country's government can be vigilant and not do things that causes the risk for it to happen again and again.

I am an Australian. If a virus originates here 3 times and then people start to question us, I will happily self-reflect and try to fix the issue.
What would you do? Take it as a luck of the draw and wait for another virus to attack?...You go to the source and try and fix the issue...

By the way, I have clearly said Chinese Government; there is no need to bring race into this.
