摘要

2013-2016年西非埃博拉疫情的空前特征为对该疾病宿主的一波调查铺平了道路。一种新的经济健康项目出现了，它雇佣几内亚的专业人员对动物进行取样，并强化了一种假设:这种疾病是从一只蝙蝠传播过来的。通过探索病毒学研究及其在埃博拉后的几内亚的危险，我认为蝙蝠宿主的假设已经发挥了启发式的作用，可以与一种恋物癖的方式进行比较，这种恋物癖使操纵和恐惧这个想法的人之间的关系两极分化。

Researching the Ebola Reservoir with the Heuristic of the Fetish in Guinea.

The unprecedented character of the 2013-2016 epidemic of Ebola in West Africa paved the way for a wave of investigations into the reservoir of the disease. A novel economy of health projects arose, which employed Guinean professionals to sample animals and fortify a hypothesis: that the disease spilled over from a bat. Through exploring virology research and its dangers in post-Ebola Guinea, I argue that the hypothesis of a bat reservoir has taken on a heuristic role that can be compared to the way that a fetish polarizes relations between the people who manipulate and fear this idea.

期刊介绍： Medical Anthropology provides a global forum for scholarly articles on the social patterns of ill-health and disease transmission, and experiences of and knowledge about health, illness and wellbeing. These include the nature, organization and movement of peoples, technologies and treatments, and how inequalities pattern access to these. Articles published in the journal showcase the theoretical sophistication, methodological soundness and ethnographic richness of contemporary medical anthropology. Through the publication of empirical articles and editorials, we encourage our authors and readers to engage critically with the key debates of our time. Medical Anthropology invites manuscripts on a wide range of topics, reflecting the diversity and the expanding interests and concerns of researchers in the field.
