But, my personal take: I think there is plenty of evidence.
As virologist Gustavo Palacios told me it’s a question of where the bar is set. “Did I formally prove that this virus transmits from human to human? Well, probably I did not, but I think that based on most of the evidence you can conclude that.”

So that’s part of the scientific question answered to my satisfaction at least: There’s pretty good evidence of some human to human spread of this virus. Now the question is: Okay, but how likely is that to happen and under what circumstances? And that’s where it gets even less certain.
