Description
Frank Ryan (au). From a Navajo reservation in New Mexico to the CDC in Atlanta, from the jungles of South America to the remote African bush, Virus X travels to the corners of the world to deliver thrilling true tales of man against microbe. By the 1970s, the medical profession & public alike believed that the threat of new epidemics was over. That illusion was shattered by the sudden appearance of AIDS & other catastrophic epidemics: hantavirus, Ebola, Marburg, “mad cow,” & the “flesh-eating” diseases. Even the old plagues -- TB, cholera, malaria, bubonic plague -- are making a comeback. Takes us into the “hot zones” of today’s most dangerous outbreaks, then into the research labs & hospitals. Photos.
