Epidemic. The real and scary story of the spread of the Ebola virus
9.99 €
The story of the emergence and spread of the worst viruses of the twentieth century, which became an instant bestseller. Based on it, WHO and many governments have published recommendations and methods of protection.
When a terrible epidemic happens, we all become equal before the virus. And even in our time, in the age of high technology and discoveries in medicine, the appearance of a new virus causes fear and panic... at least in the beginning. We can't control everything around us, but we need to know how viruses manifest themselves, how they reproduce, where their weaknesses are, and how we can keep ourselves safe.
This book describes the story of the emergence and spread of the first Ebola virus, which had a mortality rate of up to 90%. It is based on real events and tells how humanity fought a previously unknown danger, what steps it took, and how it managed to unite in the face of the unknown. This dramatic story is an example of how vulnerable we still are, even though decades have passed since those events.
