...Cluster. The implications of such findings are clear. The unusual incidence of the disease is enough to imply that it is contagious to some degree. And the discovery that some cases were not diagnosed until three or more years after exposure hints at a long incubation period. The fact that a few of the victims were connected only by unaffected third parties suggests that some people carry the disease without themselves being infected...
