I'm far from a virologist (sp?) but doesn't the spreading of the virus cause mutations in the DNA which allows it to adapt to the environment and spread more efficiently?

Unless I'm mistaken there's a CP member who specializes in virology (again SP?) that warned about Ebola about 5 years ago? Ironclly enough I think his/her user name was "Ebola".

I'd love to hear his/her input on this or anyone else who is educated on the matter. I'm far from an alarmist and think we as a population in the info age just see too much bad news for our own good but this seems a little scary.
