There are several limiting factors about ebola that make it an unlikely candidate for a serious epidemic.

The first is that it is blood borne, not pulmonary, spread by coughing and sneezing. Proper hygiene severely limits contact contamination.

Second is that ebola only mutates about 100 times slower than influenza, so the different current strains diverged perhaps a thousand years ago.

Third is that the entryway into humans is now though to be from eating undercooked bats. So don’t do this. Guinea quickly put out the warning to people to stop eating them, as well as rats.

Any word on whether it matters if the bats are maple or ash?

I understand the dangers but you have no idea how hard it is to cut undercooked bats out of your diet once your hooked.

Joking aside I've seen several articles call them a local delicacy.

I had some bat curry in Sulawesi. Chewy, but good.

I found your post to be a relief, but I wish it would just burn out already.
