Task: Hot Zone Blog: How do you think Monet got sick? What is his worst symptom?

There are many possibilities and way that Monet may have gotten sick, however, I believe that the most believable way he got sick was by touching the black guano from the velvety mass of bats, which hung at the back of Kitum Cave on broken pillar. The bats were insect eaters, and the guano was an ooze of digested insects, which may have carried the disease.  Although the author is not certain of it, Monet may have put his hand in the guano out of curiosity. Monet worst symptom is continuous bleeding flowing out of his body. When the virus crashes and Monet dies, Dr. Musoke inspects him and notices his body still continuing to bleed.
