Why Germany? So far there has only been an outbreak in Equatorial Guinea. Perhaps you are confused by the name. It's called Marburg virus because it was first identified in 1967 in a lab in Marburg, not because it's a virus that's common in Germany. The infections in 1967 were traced back to a shipment of infected African green monkeys.

I was reading about it in One Political Plaza. The part about Germany (it just happened to be named) is there is a German bunch doing boots on the ground sterilization work in Ohio. I'm sure these guys are safe though.
