RE: Bats, diseases, and the Ebola epidemic

in #science7 years ago

Great post!

I didn't know bats were such a reservoir for diseases. In my non expert opinion, killing them is thus of course not the solution, but studying them is instead (to learn how to get vaccines and possible medication).

Sort:  

Also in my non expert opinion, I agree with you. If we could learn how bats manage to be immune to all those viruses, it would certainly tell us a thing or two about making our vaccines and medication. Thanks for reading and for the comment. :)

Yep. At the end of the day, it may be a matter of fundings to undertake the studies. As for many things.
