I would suggest reading "Under a graveyard Sky" by John Ringo. Ringo is a Marine Biologist and at least a couple of people he knows have the training to deal with Bioweapons.

Sample Chapters

I have the needed materials for Marburg or MARV as it is known to some. I've found data on Airport hubs and pandemics for the U.S. I will start there, and hope that Twilight Biohazard fleshes out! Found out that three facilities in Russia still fool with Ebola and Marburg today.

If you haven't already, you may want to check out "The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story" by Richard Preston.

Amazon blurb: A highly infectious, deadly virus from the central African rain forest suddenly appears in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. There is no cure. In a few days 90 percent of its victims are dead. A secret military SWAT team of soldiers and scientists is mobilized to stop the outbreak of this exotic "hot" virus. The Hot Zone tells this dramatic story, giving a hair-raising account of the
appearance of rare and lethal viruses and their "crashes" into the human race. Shocking, frightening, and impossible to ignore, The Hot Zone proves that truth really is scarier than fiction.

Should be a copy in your local library.

It was mentioned along with a few others, fiction and nonfiction. There will be uninfected like the PC's, those who survive the pandemic will have prion lesions that have induced homicidal rage. They also have reduced vision, and are quite savage. I will stat the disease for NPC fodder, and any research for a vaccine. T2K/T2013has a lot to support this, this forum has even more! It will start in CONUS at the #1 pandemic risk, JFK International Airport. This might hassle the plans to fight such as officials race to real or imagined shelter.
