Macroclimatic Shifts Alter African Rainfall to Trigger Ebola Spillover

A study led by the University of Malaga has shown that outbreaks of Ebola virus do not occur randomly over time; rather, their appearance is linked to specific large-scale meteorological patterns, even with oscillations occurring in regions thousands of miles away from Central Africa, where they are currently suffering from an epidemic of this disease, which can be fatal.
