Nah. Although apes and monkeys are more closely related to humans, they have provided few diseases. Herded livestock and rodent pests are more frequent sources of human infections. The greater the population density of the animals a disease infects, the more opportunity that disease has to grow more virulent, to evolve new variants, and to spread.
