Kitum Cave is of great significance because in the 1980's two visitors to the cave contracted Marburg virus; Charles Monet and a fifteen year old boy. When USAMRIID inspected the cave, they found no evidence of Marburg virus.It is considered ground zero for the virus. The Monkey House was also full of a large concentration of the virus.
