WHAT IS A PANDEMIC?

HOW A PANDEMIC SPREADS

 Dig into the history of pandemics to learn how viruses and disease spreads and what we can do to stop future outbreaks.  

In our increasingly globalized world, a single infected person can board a plane and spread a virus across continents. 

Mark Honigsbaum describes the history of pandemics and how that knowledge can help halt future outbreaks.                                      It is interesting to note that this "PANDEMIC" module was assembled at the very start of our COVID 19 outbreak.  Since that time until now( 4 years) science has been able to fast track a near completion to our current PANDEMIC.



EDITORS NOTE

THIS MODULE ON THE STUDY OF DISEASE/CONTROL/PANDEMIC WAS COMPILED IN MARCH 2020 JUST AS COVID19 GRIPPED THE WORLD. SCIENCE HAS BEEN ABLE TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS OF CONTROLLING COV19 AS A RESULT OF THE  ACCUMULATED KNOWLEDGE OF SCIENCE FROM THE

PAST AND 21ST CENTURY DEVELOPMENT OF MRNA VACCINES.



HOW TO ERADICATE A DISEASE

Disease eradication is the ultimate gift we can give to everyone alive today, as well as all future generations of humanity. 

For most of human history, we have sought to treat and cure diseases. But only in recent decades did it become possible to ensure that a particular disease never threatens humanity again. Julie Garon and Walter A. Orenstein detail how the story of smallpox – the first and only disease to be permanently eliminated – shows how disease eradication can happen, and why it is so difficult to achieve.
