So far, people are NOT catching it from other people. According to the CDC there have been isolated instances of one person catching it from another, but the spread seems to stop with that. No one has gone on to catch it from a second person who was infected. Some folks in Vietnam, I think, caught it from eating uncooked duck's blood (yuck!), and a few poultry handlers have caught it. Civets have caught it (also in Vietnam), but the Civets in the next cage didn't. Go figure. So far, the virus is NOT doing well in spreading to human hosts.
