A highly infectious, deadly virus from the Central African rain forest suddenly appears in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. There is no cure. In a few days, 90 percent of its victims are dead. A secret military SWAT team of soldiers and scientists is mobilized to stop the outbreak of this exotic "hot" virus.

The Hot Zone tells this dramatic story, giving a hair-raising account of the appearance of rare and lethal viruses and their "crashes" into the human race. Shocking, frightening, and impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone proves that truth really is scarier than fiction.

This book givrs me a newfound respect for the Ebola virus, and the people who work at the CDC to help keep us safe.

Terrifying

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone who likes medical mysteries.

Be aware, that the book has some very graphic descriptions of how a hemorrhagic virus attacks and destroys the human body. If you are uncomfortable with blood and guts, give this book a pass.

Great Book, but Very Graphic

The book was nice unfortunately, i did not know that this audiobook version was an abridged one, only 3 hours long. Many parts were omitted. there is an unabridged version, over 10 hours long, unfortunately, the same was not in english. I had to return the book. If they come out with the unabridged version, I would buy again though.

Are we a virus on this earth and the earth is just counteracting to shift it's balance. The most interesting concept in the book. Really scary stuff out there and shows me how insignificant we can become when these nasty virus's decide to show their colours

Engaging read

the narration was good, story was cool, but it wasn't a particularly excitingly written book. a lot of exposition for not a ton of payoff, which I get is because it's a mostly true story, but I could have done with less info about each person and their lives

wild story but didn't particularly grab me.
