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. Wie können wir verhindern, dass eine weitere Pandemie Millionen von Menschen tötet und der Weltwirtschaft verheerende Schäden zufügt? Können wir das überhaupt schaffen?

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 accomplish this? Bill Gates believes the answer is yes, and he has written a largely upbeat book that lays out clearly and convincingly what the world should learn from COVID-19, explains the science of fighting pandemics, and suggests what all of us can do to help prevent another one.

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.

In late February 2020, Dr. Deborah Birx—a lifelong federal health official who had worked at the CDC, the State Department, and the US Army across multiple presidential administrations—was asked to join the Trump White House Coronavirus Task Force and assist the already faltering federal response to the Covid-19 pandemic. For weeks, she’d been raising the alarm behind the scenes about what she saw happening in public—from the apparent lack of urgency at the White House to the routine downplaying of the risks to Americans.

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.

Professor Devi Sridhar has risen to prominence for her vital roles in communicating science to the public and speaking truth to power. In Preventable, she highlights lessons learned from outbreaks past and present in a narrative that traces the COVID-19 pandemic—including her personal experience as a scientist—and sets out a vision for how we can better protect ourselves from the inevitable health crises to come.

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.

Some people can fight off infections relatively easily, with minor symptoms, while others suffer severely. But these outcomes—and our immune responses against them—aren’t fixed; we can build immune resilience. But how? The answer goes beyond popping vitamin C and zinc during flu season. As clinical nutritionist Romilly Hodges reveals, our immune system is intricate and multifaceted, and powerfully impacted by what we eat, as well as by our lifestyle routines.

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.

In The Helpers, journalist Kathy Gilsinan profiles eight individuals on the frontlines of the coronavirus battle: a devoted son caring for his family in the San Francisco Bay Area; a not-quite-retired paramedic from Colorado; an ICU nurse in the Bronx; the CEO of a Seattle-based ventilator company; a vaccine researcher at Moderna in Boston; a young chef and culinary teacher in Louisville, Kentucky; a physician in Chicago; and a funeral home director in Seattle and Los Angeles. These inspiring individual accounts create an unforgettable tapestry of people across the country.

When we look back at the year 2020, how can we describe what really happened? In A Deeper Sickness, award-winning historians Margaret Peacock and Erik Peterson set out to preserve what they call the “focused confusion,” and to probe deeper into what they consider the Four Pandemics that converged around the 12 astonishing months of 2020.

Overcoming the Darkness of COVID is about two doctors who used a treatment protocol early in the pandemic and early in treatment, when the conventional wisdom issued was not to provide any treatment to patients and send them home. To the contrary, every one of the patients Dr. Tyson and Dr. Fareed treated early in the illness recovered and there were no deaths. This book is their story, complete with testimonials from patients and other doctors, research studies, news clippings, and most of all, the reasons why this successful treatment was held back from the public.
