Munken Gherardo var sidst i 1348 helt alene tilbage i det kloster i Sydfrankrig, som han året før havde delt med sin prior og 34 ordensbrødre. Som i langt de fleste klostre efterlevede munkene nemlig reglen om at tage sig af syge og døende. De var derfor særlig sårbare over for den smitsomme pest, der i 1347 kom til Europa om bord på italienske handelsskibe. Lige før pesten ramte, havde Europa en befolkning på omkring 75 millioner. Fem år efter var tallet 40 millioner.

In The Black Death: New Lessons from Recent Research, celebrated medievalist Dorsey Armstrong shares the fascinating new story of this old pandemic—revealed by dedicated researchers working with 21st-century technologies and a knowledge of language and history that now provide input from all geographic areas of the medieval world. In seven engaging lectures, Professor Armstrong corrects explanations of the pandemic that are now known to be inaccurate and offers a more robust description of plague biology than has ever been known.

Bill Gates cree que la respuesta es sí, y en este libro explica de un modo claro y convincente qué deberíamos haber aprendido de la COVID-19 y qué podemos hacer cada uno de nosotros para evitar un desastre parecido. Basándose en los conocimientos de los principales expertos mundiales y en su propia experiencia combatiendo enfermedades mortales a través de la Fundación Gates, logra, en primer lugar, ayudarnos a entender, desde un punto de vista científico, cómo funcionan las enfermedades infecciosas.

In this panoramic account, we learn how great epidemics have not only led to enormous suffering and mass death but also changed the course of history. Humanity has struck back at the microbes: antibiotics and new vaccines have saved millions of lives. But the battle is far from won. We face increasing threats from new and unavoidable pandemics, antibiotic resistance, and even potential extraterrestrial microbes. Duel Without End is a fascinating journey through the long history of infection, from the dawn of life to humanity's future exploration of deep space. 

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.

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.

The COVID-19 pandemic isn’t over. But even as governments around the world try to get it under control, they’re also starting to talk about what happens next. How can we prevent another pandemic from killing millions of people and devastating the global economy? Can we even hope to...

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.

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.

Abseits aller Hysterie: Jeder 10. Todesfall ist auf eine Infektion zurückzuführen ... Gefährliche Coli-Keime auf Flugzeugsitzen, Legionellen im Trinkwasser, multiresistente Bakterien, Schweinegrippe, Ebola - was eignet sich besser für Schlagzeilen? Ist es nicht Ironie, dass uns dabei der Blick für die eigentlichen Risiken verloren geht? In diesem Buch klären Experten ersten Ranges auf: Welche Rolle spielen Abwehrkräfte des Körpers? Wann sind Impfungen zielführend? Was ist mit "klassischen" Kinderkrankheiten? Was hilft bei schweren Infektionen?

For all the horrifying statistics of the number infected by COVID-19, multiply by a factor of 20 to approximate how many worldwide are suffering stress, depression, relationship breakdown, and even suicide as a direct consequence of Coronavirus. In this straight-talking, pragmatic, but hard-hitting exposé, practicing psychiatrist Raj Persaud argues for simple yet powerful mental strategies to immunize individuals against the panic of the pandemic.

A sweeping look at the complexity of our immune system, with a natural, science-based program to help protect against viruses and other pathogens. Some people can fight off infections relatively easily, with minor symptoms, while others suffer severely. But these outcomes—and our immune...

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.

El 31 de diciembre de 2019 China informó a la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) sobre la aparición de varios casos de neumonía de causa desconocida en Wuhan, ciudad de la provincia de Hubei. El 23 de enero se cerró Hubei. El 31 de enero la OMS decretó la emergencia sanitaria global. Después de que el máximo organismo a nivel mundial de la salud declarase la aparición de esta pandemia global y los periodistas, gobernantes y políticos —aunque no todos— la aceptaran sin rechistar, las preguntas, angustiosas, se sucedieron sin respuesta.

When the SARS virus broke out in China in January 2003, Karl Taro Greenfeld was the editor of Time Asia in Hong Kong, just a few miles from the epicenter of the outbreak. After vague, initial reports of terrified Chinese boiling vinegar to "purify" the air, Greenfeld and his staff soon found themselves immersed in the story of a lifetime. Deftly tracking a mysterious viral killer, China Syndrome takes listeners on a gripping ride that blows through the Chinese government's effort to cover up the disease and sounds a clarion call warning of a catastrophe to come.

Imagine being physically denied access to your office, business, or livelihood. Imagine being refused entry to a grocery store or being told who you can or cannot sit with at a restaurant. Imagine being barred from a hospital room when you or your family member needs critical care. Unthinkable? Today, these scenarios and worse are happening in “democracies” all over the world, and could be our collective future—orchestrated by AI, Big Tech, and state-sponsored apps—all in the name of “protecting” public health with vaccine passports.
