So what causes an outbreak to occur?

So how does this virus get from the bat to the human?

How is it sneaky?

This is terrifying.

Yeah, but it still sounds like an awful disease.

OK, so usually they're caught pretty early, but you're saying that didn't happen for this current situation.

Oh, wow.
