    Everyone needs to read this book.

    I read this book in 1995. It was an eye opening. Being an independent corpsman in the Navy from 1974 to 1982 then reenlisting in 1990 for desert storm, gave me a head start with the language of medical terms. Reading it again is a good refresher course on highly contagious diseases. And what our world is up against now in 2020with this corona virus pandemic. Everyone who wants to know how and why pandemics occur needs to read this book.

    A Deadly Virus, That Is Out There And No One Want's To Feel It's Wrath.

    This is one scary book and the made for T.V. movie will freak you out. Be prepared for a ride into the world of viruses with no cure in this novel. It will make you want to purchase a bio-hazard suit afterwards. The book arrived in great condition, and it's one everyone should read.
