Viruses, Pandemics, and Immunity By: Arup K Chakraborty, Andrey Shaw [Audiobook]

Author: Andrey S. Shaw, Arup K. Chakraborty
Narrated by: Donald Corren

How viruses emerge to cause pandemics, how our immune system combats them, and how diagnostic tests, vaccines, and antiviral therapies work.

Throughout history, humans have contended with pandemics. History is replete with references to plagues, pestilence, and contagion, but the devastation wrought by pandemics had been largely forgotten by the 21st century. Now, the enormous human and economic toll of the rapidly spreading COVID-19 disease offers a vivid reminder that infectious disease pandemics are one of the greatest existential threats to humanity. This book provides an accessible explanation of how viruses emerge to cause pandemics, how our immune system combats them, and how diagnostic tests, vaccines, and antiviral therapies work – concepts that are a foundation for our public health policies.
