The original home of the virus was the rain forest.

"Whatever the original host of the virus, it seems that a blood-to-blood contact in the rain forest enabled the virus to move into the human world."

"...its original host was probably not monkeys, humans or guinea pigs but some other animal or insect that it did not kill."

Every monkey in the monkey house died. I'd say that makes it 100%.

"AS FOR THE MONKEY HOUSE, the entire building died. The Army didn't have to

nuke it. It was nuked by the Ebola Reston virus."
