Zika by Donald G Mcneil Jr

A gripping narrative about the Zika virus outbreak from The New York Times science reporter covering the epidemic.
".. I find much to applaud in Mr. McNeil’s Zika... In a no-nonsense, declarative writing style, Mr. McNeil tells the history of humanity’s relationship with the Zika virus... [He] ends with simple words: “Stay alert. And empathetic". That’s not a bad summary of how all of us — public health experts, politicians, ordinary citizens — should respond to outbreaks of contagious disease." -- The New York Times
Donald G. McNeil Jr. is a science reporter covering plagues and pestilences for The New York Times, where he began work as a copy boy in 1976. He is a former Africa correspondent and has reported from fifty-five countries.
