This is a work that makes you reluctant to miss a single word—where a fever virus from the tropical rainforest occurs right beside us. —Detroit Free Press A book that makes the President tremble: "President Clinton was stunned by The Cobra Event," this work tells of an independent terrorist who launches an attack on New York City using a traditional virus. The terrorist claims he wants these so-called experts to verify the virus's effectiveness." —The New York Times In New York City, a 17-year-old girl suddenly sneezes out mucus, followed by in an operating room, and dies within just a few minutes. Five days earlier, a homeless person died suddenly on a subway platform in broad daylight. An unknown virus is quietly spreading in New York. Alice Austin, a doctor at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, discovered in the initial test results that the girl's nervous system had been confirmed to be damaged. So far, only one person has died from this disease, and he was a homeless person. Austin must combine these two cases for analysis and treatment, and she must act before the disease spreads again. In addition to giving the public a lesson in biological weapons, this book has also greatly influenced the national defense policy of the United States. According to media reports, one of the key reasons that then-President Clinton signed the Biological and Chemical Weapons Act was that after seriously reading this book, he was terrified and felt immense concern. Indeed, a few years later, anthrax virus was used by terrorist organizations to attack the public health system of the United States. Fortunately, thanks to the anti-biological weapons system established a few years earlier, it did not cause too much damage. Preston's contribution in this matter is undeniable.
