Very good point by Foxtrot25.
The virus needs to be manifest as symptoms -- and death to underscore the stakes -- in on screen human victims. ?As in the "Andromeda Strain" (1971) and "Contagion" (2011).
How else is an audience going to understand what he's dealing with?

A problem I see is that you made your antagonist invisible and speechless. The Dustin Hoffman movie worked because it was mostly about saving a divorce situation and then their own lives. The later antagonistic force was the Sutherland military option.
the virus is used during a dual use clinical study that has both legitimate medical uses as a vaccine but also military ones as a 'smart' biological weapon capable of targeting and killing at the individual level. The problem is, the military accidentally made the virus have more nano-intelligence than initially designed and it finds a way out of containment. An outbreak of a new variant of flu begins killing kids with on the small island. This story is based on an actual incident that happened in 1977 that is responsible for the resurrection and global pandemic of H1N1
An ancient, resurrected virus escapes during testing on an isolated island. A bioweapons specialist has only 24 hours to contain it to prevent a pandemic.
So this is about a virus and not the actual bug? The bug is simply how he gets to the island?
A military ?Bug Collector? fights to contain an ancient virus after its accidental release traps him in quarantine on a third world island.
In that case, I would define him as a scientist - for the laymen it makes the story clear despite not being entirely accurate.
I.e:
After a military scientist resurrects a prehistoric virus on an isolated Island, he must find a vaccine in time to prevent a pandemic.
24 words.
yes, it is a modern day version of frankenstein actually. He resurrects a 25 million year old virus then it escapes and starts killing people
