Modern transportation and bad immigration and trade policies have combined to create considerable risk for the US public-and the rest of the world. The latest outbreak of Marburg viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) in Angola appears considerably worse than past outbreaks of Marburg VHF or its cousin, Ebola fever.This version of Marburg VHF is spreading considerably more rapidly than in the past.
