Airborne mutations of Ebola.
Plot device(s) in the movie Outbreak and the Tom Clancy novel Rainbow Six if I recall correctly.
Scary.
Tom Clancy’s “Executive Orders”.
The Iranians try to develop a strain of Ebola Mayinga that gets deployed as an aerosol. After the initial infection outbreak, it burns out due to lack of contact with victims.
The nastiest killer in human history was a bacteria named yersina pestis. Better known as the Black Death.
It killed half the population of medieval Europe. Giovanni Boccaccio’s famous “Decameron” has it as its background.
Outbreak was a very enjoyable movie.
And the Clancy novel “Executive Orders”.
