Ebola fever — a deadly viral disease originating from Africa. This plague, like COVID-19, came to us from the animal world — from bats. Humanity found itself unarmed in the face of an enemy — there were no medications or...
vaccines. The fever rapidly engulfed West Africa. The epidemic spread like wildfire across countries on three continents, and the outbreak was contained only at the cost of the combined efforts of scientists and doctors from the USA, Africa, and Europe.
Richard Preston's gripping book plunges the reader into the very heart of the epidemic, describing the fates of those whose heroic actions stalled the disaster, exposing the vulnerability of modern healthcare systems, and warning us of the inevitability of new unknown diseases.
