The Spin

Narrative A

While some vaccine candidates for Marburg Virus have had promising results in experimental animal trials, there is a very small window of time for these doses to be produced and deployed. Manufacturers need to hurry — time is of the essence with this extremely deadly virus.

CBS

Narrative B

While Marburg Virus is indeed an extremely deadly disease that generates alarmist headlines, the reality is that the population size of those infected is likely very small. What is more indicative is the general and problematic "spillover" of dangerous viruses from animals to humans. Outbreaks like these remind us that spillover increasingly is part of our everyday life.
