We were warned about this in the 90s. These two books should be required reading:
The Hot Zone - Richard Preston

The Coming Plague - Laurie Garrett
https://www.lauriegarrett.com/the-coming-plague
It’s the same story in both. Preston’s book is a little sensationalized and reads like a Michael Crighton novel. Light, breezy and horrifying.
Garretts book reads like a New York Times article, painstakingly reaearched and sourced.
It’s also marketed like a Crichton novel, the last time I saw the paperback it had the exact same styling as Jurassic Park
What is the worst this has ever got?
900 cases usually means there are lot more under the radar, or does “suspected cases” also include estimate on those.
