Once and for all: fiction is not science. The Hot Zone is a terrific
novel, written by a gifted author. It is not a virology textbook, so
read it with a grain of salt.

Nothing I have seen in the many posts appearing on this subject
supports the notion that this virus can be transmitted in aerosol
fashion.
