Week #1

               "Hot Zone" is a book about ebola. This book is based on true events that happen to people with the deadly, quiet disease. I have not gotten that far into this book but so far it has been a real intense reading. What I have read is about this doctor who ends up finding the first case of Ebola. What Ebola does to you is crucial. Ebola literally eats your body from the inside out; Ebola is one of those viruses that portrays itself as nothing in the first few stages when in reality you have no idea you are on your death bed. Ebola, is one of the most painful killers out there, you start by puking up blood and it pretty much turns your insides into liquid. In the story I am reading the man who had Ebola died in a hospital when he lost too much blood. Yet he died, the disease carries on. Specifically to his doctor after he coughed blood into his mouth, the doctor thought nothing was wrong and carried on working and spreading the disease. Soon i will see what the rest of the book has instore for me.
