Lieutenant Colonel Gerald (Jerry) Jaax
Although a civilian, Gene Johnson runs the Ebola research division of USAMRIID. He has traveled the world studying rare and deadly viruses, and has a reputation for being brilliant but unconventional. His immense knowledge of diseases such as Ebola has instilled within him a deep fear of them. Despite the fact that he has terrifying nightmares about Ebola, one of Johnson’s most powerful wishes is to find the ultimate source of the disease. In an effort to do so, he headed an expedition to Kitum Cave, but was unable to find the virus’s host organism.
