Flaggermusens mysterier

VI har dykket ned i flaggermusens underlige verden. Hvordan kan det ha seg at flaggermusen er bærer av (og tilsynelatende lever uaffisert med) en så lang rekke livsfarlige infeksjonssykdommer? Vi har fordypet oss i litteraturen og har dessuten snakket med forsker og virolog Irene Ørpetveit ved Veterinærinstituttet. Velkommen til en episode om flaggermusens mysterier!
