The Gemini Virus: First You Sneeze. Then You Die - Softcover

"A terrifying tale of a mysterious lethal outbreak that starts in a smalltown community and quickly goes global. Thank your lucky stars the scenario is fictional" --Dr. Elinor Levy, Associate Professor of Microbiology at Boston University School of Medicine; author, The New Killer Diseases "A chilling scenario . . . a fast-paced and immensely entertaining story. Thrilling and eerie. Once you open the front cover, you will not be able to put it down." --Dr. Martinez J. Hewlett, co-author of Basic Virology

Bob Easton thinks he has a cold. Before he dies in agony four days later, he infects dozens of people. Local health agencies are quickly overwhelmed and beg the CDC for help. Dr. Michael Beck and Cara Porter, members of the Epidemic Intelligence Service, race to identify the deadly bug. They can't cure it until they know what it is. Dennis and Andi Jensen are terrified. Schools and offices close. Food disappears. Three of their children's friends die. The Jensens join the exodus, journeying to their isolated mountain cabin along empty roads, avoiding government road blocks. The superbug - and the panic - quickly spread beyond America's borders. In the lab, Cara makes a potentially fatal mistake. In the mountains, Andi tells her husband that she doesn't feel well.
