Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The 2013-2014 Ebola epidemic was the deadliest ever. The ensuing global drama activated health professionals in North America, Europe, and Africa in a desperate race against time to contain the viral wildfire. By the end-- as the virus mutated into its deadliest form-- 30,000 people would be infected across three continents. Preston chronicles the outbreak, writing of doctors and nurses in the field putting their own lives on the line, of government bureaucrats and NGO administrators moving, often fitfully, to try to contain the outbreak, and of pharmaceutical companies racing to develop drugs to combat the virus. He makes clear that the outbreak of 2013-2014 is a harbinger of further, more severe outbreaks, and of emerging viruses heretofore unimagined. -- adapted from jacket
