Article Abstract:

The fruit bats species eaten by people in central Africa show evidence of symptomless Ebola infection where there is the first recorded human outbreak of Ebola virus. The human infection directly from fruit bats can be countered by education where animals are eaten as local population and other bat and animal species act as Ebola virus reservoirs.
