Researchers also said that infection in the community is "inevitable". However, environmental factors also contribute greatly to the spread of diseases such as infection from bats or chimpanzees. Oxford's study by Nick Golding, a zoologist researcher, said: "Our map shows the potential for containing Ebola virus in animal populations."

With more than 1,000 people dying for Ebola in Liberia, the country's defense minister, Brownie Samukai, said the pandemic was threatening the country's survival."Liberia is facing a threat to the survival of the nation. Ebola virus has disrupted all national activities," he said.
