Nothing better than mesquite grilled bat.

Marinated first in a balsamic-enriched, slightly acidic (pH ~5, TYVM) solution for no more than an hour.

Heavy on the garlic. Bat has a slightly gamy taste.

I had read that. I also read that the virus has a soft outer covering similar to the AIDS virus and you can only get it by contact with someone's body fluids. Other viruses like the cold and flu have a hard outer covering and can be transferred through the air from someone coughing or sneezing.
