Interspecific barrier. The inevitable future of human diseases and our influence on it. Kuamman D.

The whole world was covered by global pandemia, which led to the death of hundreds of thousands of people. The new Zonozoic virus overcame the interspecific barrier. This is a phenomenon when a new pathogen comes to people from wild nature and can be repeated again and again. Can we prevent this? In this book, this topic becomes the main issue that must be asked to ourselves.

The famous scientific writer David Kuamman traveled around the world and tried to understand the destructive potential for the spread of viruses. He found exciting and tragic stories, anxiety among officials and deep concern to the future in the eyes of researchers. We are faced with incredibly important questions today: are pandemia independent misfortunes or are they interconnected? Do they appear on their own or is our activity the cause? What can we do to prevent the next tragedy? Cuamman traces the origin of Ebola, atypical pneumonia, bird flu, Lyme disease and other viral outbreaks, including a gloomy and unexpected story about how AIDS began.
