If memory serves correct, unlike Ebola, which has a very high death rate, Marburg only has a something like 25% death rate.

Still supports using the antibodies to make a vaccine or antivirus (it is a virus, right?).

I think it would be worth it, don’t you? If Marburg got lose in the gp and you knew that that 1 in 4 of your family members or friends would face death... isn’t it worth it?

Two great books/movies but notice we don’t see much anymore in the media?

Was it just Hollywood fiction or fact that Ebola was conected to Primates/Monkeys.

IIRC the book even if fiction had some cave connection. Bat droppings?
