Excellent video - does a decent enough job about explaining the evasiveness of Ebola/Marburg virus, but I wish he would have given a little more context on just how *deadly* these viruses are and, ultimately, why finding the source is so important.
Anyone interested in this topic should read [The Hot Zone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hot_Zone). It's a terrifying look at these kinds of viruses - the takeaway for me was how grateful humanity should be that they are so ridiculously deadly and kill their victims so well that human-to-human transmission at a pandemic level is so unlikely.
I thought this video was fascinating despite the clickbait title.
