A disease that kills nearly half its victims — yet has caused fewer deaths than one bad flu season.
Ebola's case fatality rate rivals nothing else in modern medicine, and its capacity to escape containment has made it one of the most intensively studied pathogens on Earth — despite a surprisingly modest total death toll.
This book uncovers a far more precise story: a cellular hijacking so exact it triggers no alarm, a dysregulated immune response that causes more harm than the virus itself, and a persistent gap between fact and fear.
Inside, you'll discover:
– How Ebola's glycoproteins slip past a cell's own defenses undetected
– Why an immune overreaction, not the virus, causes most of the damage
– The documented evidence behind Ebola's most persistent myths and misconceptions
What Science Says About… explores science's most urgent questions with rigor, clarity, and zero sensationalism.
Read What Science Says About… Ebola — separate fact from fear.
