  Book Description:
  The Center for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta started in 1940 as a small government agency founded for the purpose of eradicating malaria from the United States. Since then, the CDC has grown into a disease-fighting behemoth whose sphere of action is the entire planet. VIRUS GROUND ZERO shows how the CDC's viral shock troops have helped remove one deadly virus from the face of the earth, are scheduled to do the same with another by the end of the year 2000, and have similar lethal plans for a whole range of other microbes. This is the harrowing and heroic story of the CDC's disease cowboys who daily risk their lives in medical science's war against our most cunning and relentless enemies. "In spite of the occasional grimness of the subject, fun to read...the anecdotes are gripping and Mr. Regis writes a good detective story." (New York Times Book Review)
