Das neue Hörbuch von Bill Gates, das zeigt, wie sich Pandemien in Zukunft verhindern lassen. Die COVID-19-Pandemie ist noch nicht überstanden. Doch während Regierungen auf der ganzen Welt noch versuchen, sie unter Kontrolle zu bringen, wird bereits diskutiert, wie es weitergehen kann und was als nächstes passieren sollte. Wie können wir verhindern, dass eine weitere Pandemie Millionen von Menschen tötet und der Weltwirtschaft verheerende Schäden zufügt? Können wir das überhaupt schaffen?

Wer eine akute Coviderkrankung übersteht, hat bis zur vollständigen Genesung oft einen langen Weg vor sich. Das gilt keineswegs nur für Personen, die intensivmedizinisch behandelt wurden: Auch nach milden Verläufen leiden Menschen manchmal noch lange nach der Infektion mit Sars-CoV-2 unter verschiedenen Beschwerden. Zu ihnen zählen etwa Abgeschlagenheit, Sinnesstörungen und Konzentrationsschwierigkeiten bis hin zu bleibenden Organschäden und neurologischen Folgeerkrankungen. Die Erforschung dieses komplexen Symptombilds, das als "Long Covid" bekannt wurde, hat erst begonnen.

Unser Immunsystem ist durch die Evolution mit der Umwelt und allen anderen Lebensformen verbunden und trägt die immunologische Entwicklung aller Lebewesen in sich. Wenn wir verstehen wollen, wie wir langfristig gesund bleiben, brauchen wir in der Medizin einen Paradigmenwechsel hin zur Ökoimmunologie. Diese junge Wissenschaft untersucht, welchen Einfluss Temperatur, Jahreszeit, Bodenmikroben, Atemluft und andere Umweltfaktoren auf Krankheiten und deren Verläufe haben.

Caldo estremo, uragani, piogge torrenziali, incendi, nuovi virus aggressivi come quello che ha segnato il mondo intero nel 2020. La natura ha cominciato a ribellarsi. E non c'è più tempo: l'impatto dell'uomo sul nostro pianeta ha un peso ormai insostenibile. Molte patologie infettive degli ultimi decenni, da Ebola all'AIDS, da hendra alla dengue, non sono solo tragedie dettate dal caso. C'è un nesso profondo tra la loro diffusione e i cambiamenti climatici, la deforestazione, l'inquinamento e anche la diseguaglianza sociale, perché povertà e fame sono alleati dei virus.

Fight COVID and Win: A Survival Guide reveals the COVID-19 prevention and treatment protocol that has saved the lives of over 2,000 patients. Since early 2020, Dr. Williams' Urgent Care 24/7 centers across the Southern United States have seen people from all walks of life—from the elderly and high risk to the pregnant and breastfeeding to the fit and young to the immunocompromised. To date, Fight COVID and Win is the first comprehensive user manual to prevent COVID-19 infection, treat early and effectively, and keep patients alive—and without long-haul COVID symptoms.

In The Helpers, journalist Kathy Gilsinan profiles eight individuals on the frontlines of the coronavirus battle: a devoted son caring for his family in the San Francisco Bay Area; a not-quite-retired paramedic from Colorado; an ICU nurse in the Bronx; the CEO of a Seattle-based ventilator company; a vaccine researcher at Moderna in Boston; a young chef and culinary teacher in Louisville, Kentucky; a physician in Chicago; and a funeral home director in Seattle and Los Angeles. These inspiring individual accounts create an unforgettable tapestry of people across the country.

In early 2020, our lives were upended by a new virus that caused the most severe pandemic in over a century. Where did this virus, first called the novel coronavirus and later SARS coronavirus-2, come from? Did we see it coming? If so, why weren't we better prepared for it? How lethal is it really? How can we protect ourselves from it? How will the pandemic end? What will life be like once it is over? In this meticulously researched book, Anirban Mahapatra demystifies the virus and offers us a historical perspective.

Margaret never dreamed that purchasing her newly remodeled dream cottage on the north end of Houghton Lake, Michigan, would send her family's life spiraling into any parent’s worst nightmare. Shortly after moving in, the family finds themselves barricaded like prisoners in their own home in a vain attempt to dodge the swarming reconstructed wetland mosquitoes. Nobody's immune to the bug bites, but one-year-old Julia's welts quickly develop into bizarre and unexplainable lesions.

Since we first heard rumblings about a novel type of pneumonia in Wuhan, China, terms like pandemic, spike protein, viral particles, variants, mRNA vaccines, antibodies, hydroxychloroquine, social distancing, immune response, convalescent plasma, aerosol transmission, and of course, face coverings, have entered our everyday vocabulary. The scientific literature has exploded with studies exploring every facet of COVID-19, but unfortunately the “viral” spread of misinformation about the pandemic has also reached epic proportions.

Este volumen ofrece un recorrido cronológico por las epidemias que asolaron México desde la época prehispánica hasta nuestros días.

To think of not washing one's hands often throughout the day can lead to profound consequences. Indeed, inadequate handwashing in this era can result in sickness or death. Human hands encounter many objects and other people, all throughout the day. Hands can be visibly or invisibly dirty. Therefore, dashing through the day, handling money, shaking hands, visiting the restroom, and handling door knobs and various other items without taking the time to wash one's hands places oneself and other people at substantial risk for transmitted diseases.

Alla fine del 2019, i medici degli ospedali di Wuhan, nella Cina centrale, si trovano ad affrontare una strana sindrome respiratoria che pare legata al grande mercato ittico della città, dove oltre al pesce si vende ogni tipo di animale commestibile, vivo o morto. Mentre i malati si moltiplicano e alcuni soccombono a una polmonite virale particolarmente aggressiva, i laboratori riescono rapidamente a isolare il responsabile della malattia: è un nuovo coronavirus, simile a quello della SARS che tra il 2002 e il 2003 aveva spaventato il mondo.

Allan är stolt över sitt uppdrag i Höstjakten. Det är tyvärr inte alla som är villiga att göra sin plikt för samhället, men han gör den mer än gärna. Att det i år även är Farsans tur att bevisa sitt värde gör ingen skillnad. Parasit som parasit. Så är det bara.

Where did Spanish flu come from, and what can the possible sites of origin tell us today? This book looks at how Spanish flu changed the focus of scientific thought from eugenics to the creation of public health, and how it unfolded across each continent.

La humanidad ha vivido varias pandemias a lo largo de su historia más letales que la de la COVID-19, sin embargo, es posiblemente la peor que hayamos vivido en mucho tiempo y se ha convertido en un enemigo que nadie vio venir y que genera tanto miedo como dudas. En este audiolibro, los autores nos presentan un recorrido divulgativo por el funcionamiento del virus: cómo actúa, cómo se propaga, qué podemos aprender de las pandemias del pasado y cómo prevenir las del futuro son algunos de los temas que abordan Sonia de Miguel y Juan Carlos Ruiz en estas páginas.
