How a few bat clades, not all, shape global spillover risk

Researchers have revealed that viral epidemic potential is not evenly distributed across bat lineages, with transmissibility, virulence, and death burden clustered in specific clades. The findings challenge the perception that all bats are equally high-risk, supporting targeted surveillance and conservation approaches.
