Suggest you read that book.
“In Michael Crichton’s novel “The Andromeda Strain,” the deadly extraterrestrial organism is not a virus, but a unique, crystalline lifeform that lacks DNA, RNA, proteins, and amino acids, and has a unique method of energy transformation.”
Read John Ringo’s Black Tide Rising series. Now there’s a zombie apocalypse.
