    About this ebook

    A new disease has reared its ugly head. People are getting very sick with high fevers and an itchy rash. Even worse, it seems to be spreading quickly to several major cities around the world. What is this new disease, and why is it spreading so fast? It’s up to Max Axiom and the Society of Super Scientists to find out! In this nonfiction graphic novel, young readers can follow the team as they go on an exciting, fact-filled adventure to learn how diseases work, why pandemics and superbugs are so dangerous, and things they can do to help stop the spread of deadly disease.
