Chapter 2 and part of 3

I'm really getting into this book. The doctor that helped Monet, Dr. Musoke, came down with the virus. He started to have back pains, but he just ignored them and kept on working. Then the muscles through out his body were starting to bother him and he just thought that it was from working long hours. He didn't really think about Monet until his eyes turned red. Then he remembered how he was trying to help Monet without gloves on, and that Monet vomited into Dr. Musoke's mouth on accident. Monet ended up dead because of the virus. I think that if I was a doctor and wasn't feeling right that I wouldn't go to work because you are trying to help these people who are already sick. You could be spreading what ever it is that you have to the clients. When Dr. Silverstein was in charge of Dr. Musoke, I think that he was very smart about trying to find out what was going on with him. I think that he did the right thing by taking a blood sample and sending it in. They should have done that in the first places before they opened him up in an exploratory surgery. Dr. Silverstein found out that he had Marburg virus and he didn't know what it was so he looked it up. He found out that it first came from monkeys. A vet. was to pick out the sick monkeys to be killed so that sickness wouldn't spread, but the monkeys weren't being taken care of and were being shipped out anyway. To me that was just stupid to send sick animals out into the world when nobody knew what they had.
