It was not what I expected, I picked it to read because I thought a fiction.
However, this book is very helpful to anyone who wants to know anything Ebola and how it killed so many people. I don’t regret reading this; it is very informative and well written.

absolutely blown away by this. just a really beautiful analysis of the amorality & indifference of nature; the intricacies of life and death; the need to blend science & culture — the facts of the world and the beliefs of our societies — to establish a better defense against disease destruction... in essence, humans are the virus; human nature is what needs to be confronted and conquered.

overall, really loved this. i loved the way it was written, the change of voices & perspectives.
