They used the same TEM images of the virus particles and basically let it do the same thing as my fave blood-borne haemorrhagic fever but with the added benefit of being airborne.The Kernel wrote:If it is Ebola, it looks an awful lot like the Mutaba virus they used in the movie Outbreak. Interesting that they actually did their research on that one.Rogue 9 wrote: Indeed it is. I'm not sure which subspecies, but I'm leaning toward Ebola Sudan. The tail's too enlongated relative to the head for it to be Marburg. (Did a paper on this once. Disturbing stuff, what it'll do to you. *Shudder*)
Now where did I put my copy of The Hot Zone...

PETA uses red paint for all their "splash blood on people" stunts. As dumb as they often are, I'm sure if they were throwing around real blood one of them would figure out that they're causing the deaths of helpless innocent animals by splashing the blood around.
Come to think of it, that would be a hilarious scene.

I enjoy a good T-bone steak and dislike PETA as much as anybody else, but this is just "me too" spam of the highest order.
