Well yes, that’s true, but I don’t know of any natural law that exists to say that humans won’t or can’t become extinct.

So of course, one does have a certain curiousity to know more about such a deadly virus.

There are so many humans around that a certain percentage of us, somewhere, must have immunity to any particular virus. Just like some people are naturally immune to polio or the flu. Some people are particularly unattractive to fleas or mosquitoes.

No natural law. More like the law of probability.

When you think about it, the percentage of Africans who are immune to ebola might be quite high, in the 20-40 per cent range.
