| 520 | |a The bestselling landmark account of the origins and emergence of the Ebola virus. There is no cure. In a few days 90 percent of its victims are dead. In 1989, a relative of the Ebola virus, Ebola Reston, a highly infectious, deadly virus from the central African rain forest, suddenly appears in a primate quarantine facility in Reston, Virginia, about 15 miles from Washington, DC. A secret military SWAT team of soldiers and scientists is mobilized to stop the outbreak of this exotic "hot" virus. The Hot Zone tells this dramatic story, giving a hair-raising account of the appearance of rare and lethal viruses and their "crashes" into the human race. Shocking, frightening, and impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone proves that truth really is scarier than fiction. | ||
