First, The Rats Came For Our Pizza. Now, This. Starting To Think They Don't Like Us
-
In Hong Kong, they say there are cases in which rats are infecting humans with hepatitis, a rare case of animal-to-human transmission. And they don't know how it's happening, because before now, they thought that the hepatitis virus couldn't jump from rats to humans, but it can, apparently, and they aren't sure how. They're thinking that maybe the patients drank contaminated water, or handled contaminated objects, but they don't know, especially since their most recent patient had practically zero contact with rats, had no rats in his household, and hadn't traveled. This... is disturbing. (CNN)
