This video on Bayesian statistics has one of my favourite math jokes:

"Wow! What are the chances of finding me here?"
"Well, it's the first time I've found you here, so I don't know"
There's (possibly / probably / who knows) a Bayesian inference that could be calculated and inferences about the distributions homo- / heterogeneity - i.e. does it "clump", because of the way that viruses spread.
That maths is way beyond me these days though - Maybe there's some actual studies done on that, which could give credence either way.
