An excerpt:
The Ebola Experiments were not a success in the sense that the drugs had no effect on the virus. All of Gene Johnson's infected monkeys died no matter what drugs they were given. They all died. The virus absolutely nuked the monkeys. It was a complete slate wiper. The only survivors of the experiment were the two control monkeys--the healthy, uninfected monkeys that lived in cages across the room from the sick monkeys. The control monkeys had not been infected with Ebola, and so, as expected, they had not become sick.
Then, two weeks after the incident with the bloody glove, something frightening happened in the Ebola rooms. The two healthy monkeys developed red eyes and bloody noses, and they crashed and bled out. They had never been deliberately infected with Ebola virus, and they had not come near the sick monkeys. They were separated from the sick monkeys by open floor...
But Ebola had drifted across a room. It had moved quickly, decisively, and by an unknown route. Most likely the control monkeys inhaled it into their lungs...."It probably traveled through the air in aerosolized secretions. That was when I knew that Ebola can travel through the air."
p. 64-65.
(The speculation that the Ebola virus could be aerosolized and infect otherwise healthy monkeys during the experiment
is made by Major Nancy Jaax, a veterinarian in the United States Army, in 1983, while serving at the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases (USAMRIID), specializing in the effects of Biosafety Level 4 hot agents, volunteering
as a pathologist for Johnson's Ebola project.)
And the "bloody glove" incident is one that happened to her when her protective gear was discovered to have leaks and she was
scared out of her wits--to the point she collapsed--when she discovered it because she had cut that hand the night before while prepping veggies for her kids' dinner.
