The Hot Zone: The Chilling True Story of an Ebola Outbreak - Softcover
COMING TO NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ON 27 MAY 2019
_________
In March 2014, the Ebola outbreak in West Africa was first reported. By October 2014, it had become the largest and deadliest occurrence of the disease.
Over 4,500 people have died. Almost 10,000 cases have been reported, across Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and the United States.
Impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone is the terrifying, true-life account of when this highly infectious virus spread from the rainforests of Africa to the suburbs of Washington, D.C in 1989. A secret SWAT team of soldiers and scientists were quickly tasked with halting the outbreak. And they did. But now, that very same virus is back. And we could be just one wrong move away from a pandemic.

Review:
The dramatic and chilling story of an Ebola virus outbreak in a surburban Washington, D.C. laboratory, with descriptions of frightening historical epidemics of rare and lethal viruses. More hair-raising than anything Hollywood could think of, because it's all true.
From the Publisher:
"One of the most horrifying things I've ever read. What a remarkable piece of work."
--Stephen King
--Stephen King
"Popular science writing at its best and the year's most infectious page-turner."
--People
"A top-drawer horror story...the best literary roller coaster of the fall."
--Newsweek
