Via the Guardian, the deeply disturbing discovery that ebola has something in common with Mira Grant's deeply creepy Kelis-Amberlee virus:

In an interview with the New York Times he revealed that months after his apparent recovery the pressure inside his eye, which had been dangerously elevated, began to drop and he felt his eye was turning to mush. “The eye felt dead to me,” Crozier said.

The biggest shock came one morning about 10 days after his ocular symptoms started, when he saw that one eye, normally blue, had turned green. It transpired that the inside of his left eye was teeming with live, replicating virus.

Truly disturbing...
