Good grief no! as far as I know there’s only one lab in the country allowed to handle such a dangerous virus – it spreads incredibly quickly, kills rapidly and isn’t treatable. I wouldn’t even want to work on something so nasty.

Ian commented on :
It’s not the most deadly virus we know of – that’s rabies ( only five survivors in the whole of human history ) but it kills 70%, leaves the rest pretty much crippled and often blind. It spreads so fast outbreaks usually burn themselves out but if it ever got into a city with an airport…..
