> In experiment 1, a 4:1 challenge-to-contact ratio resulted in 100% transmission among direct-contact mice, with all mice succumbing to the infection. In experiment 2, a 1:1 ratio yielded 50% transmission, with all challenged mice also succumbing.
What's not supported from the title is that they only tested in mice. But they do keep mentioning "mammalian adaptation" so it might just be that it's expected all mammals to suffer the same fate without certain adaptations.
