Description
The Virus by Stanley Johnson
Initially published in 1982 as The Marburg Virus, this novel reveals uncanny parallels with the current corona virus. A mysterious and deadly disease is at the centre of the story, whose origins are traced back to a medical student infected by a green monkey.
The book follows an epidemiologist on a desperate search for a vaccine, as they navigate the complexities of a rapidly spreading outbreak.
