I assumed as much.  Jim, or anyone, it was said that this expansion to
Oklahoma was definitely a human transmission, not via a bat colony.  Is this
because there are no bats that go between Oklahoma and any other infected
area?

I thought I had read a while back that all of the experts were pretty sure
that it was only transmitted via bat, that they didn't think that humans
were the cause of the spread, but I cannot find that tidbit, so I'm not sure
how reliable that is.

Care to clarify, or point me to a link if you have one.

Thanks
Charles
