Strange bat movement neat St James park.
could be worse than ebola.
A team of scientists have developed a model that can predict the likelihood of bat species carrying Ebola and other filoviruses using a machine learning algorithm. Filoviruses are a group of long filament shaped viruses that encode their genome on a single-stranded RNA. Ebola is the most well-known example; other filoviruses …
Will have to do a bit of research to find out just what the process of transmission from bat to human is.
