Explanation:

The Hot Zone is a book written by Richard Preston in 1994 and it's about the catastrophic events that, in this alternate reality, took place in the US due to ebola and marbur viruses being massively spreaded, presented in both a literary and scientific way of awareness.

Although the book doesn't show a concrete reality, it was captivating enough for society to worry about the subject and for it to be present on a daily basis.
