That makes a lot of sense and adds context, thank you!!

I’ve actually also always wondered why humans are not so genetically diverse compared to other species. In this context there’s an answer that makes sense to me. A degree of less genetic diversity, compared to a lot of other species, keeps us safer as we have less chances to provide this kind of bridge that viruses need to evolve into something we can catch.

Do you think that’s somewhat right?
