Considering the source of this news (NYT), I am kinda wondering if maybe the actual story wasn’t around someone finding a discarded pack of Marlboros and someone nearby said “oh, those are mine”.
Marlboros, mine. Marburg, mine. They’ve spun harder with less.
I linked the actual source of the article, Marburg Virus Infection Detected in a Common African Bat, so what's your point?
