Story0
Based on brief, pithy quotations from Rudolf Steiner's collected works, the "spiritual perspectives" in this volume present core concepts on the subject of epidemics. These brief extracts do not claim to provide exhaustive treatment of the subject, but open up approaches to the complexity of Steiner's extraordinary world of ideas. Some listeners will find these fragments sufficient stimulus in themselves, whilst others will use the source references as signposts toward deeper study and understanding.

Story0
Few diseases are more gruesome than typhus. Transmitted by body lice, it afflicts the dispossessed - refugees, soldiers, and ghettoized peoples - causing hallucinations, terrible headaches, boiling fever, and often death. The disease plagued the German army on the Eastern Front and left the Reich desperate for a vaccine. For this they turned to the brilliant and eccentric Polish zoologist Rudolf Weigl.

What can we learn from the past pandemics? Do you want to know more about the Spanish flu? The pandemic had nearly similar causes to influenza; we are now fighting because of the reality that the H1N1 epidemic triggered Spanish flu from animals. The pandemic has catastrophic effects, and the overall mortality reported is greater than SARS, HIV, Black Death, and Ebola.

Ognuna delle vicende dimenticate, che Giuseppe Remuzzi ricostruisce con passione e gusto del dettaglio nel suo nuovo libro, è stata un passo da gigante non solo per la sanità ma per la stessa evoluzione della specie. E senza quelle storie di fallimenti e successi non sarebbe stato possibile arrivare oggi in tempo record alla nuova frontiera del vaccino a mRNA contro il Covid-19 e le sue varianti con cui ancora ci confrontiamo.

Story0
La contaminazione esprime la paura di essere invasi da qualcosa o da qualcuno e mette in crisi la nostra singolaritĂ . Esiste dai tempi piĂą lontani: la ritroviamo nel Noli me tangere di GesĂą nel Vangelo e nel cristianesimo con il rito del battesimo che toglie i peccati dell'uomo, ma anche in altre religioni, nelle caste degli intoccabili, nella presunta purezza dell'ordine nobiliare e nella discriminazione delle razze. Una concordanza fondata su elementi biologici che la paura del virus ha attivato, facendo presa dunque sulla costituzione generale ed essenziale della specie umana.

To paraphrase the great sci-fi writer Stephen King: Kill your darlings, kill your darlings, even when it breaks your heart, kill your darlings. Translation: stay on point and mercilessly avoid side stories and anecdotes. With much respect for Mr. King, The History of Man Series is precisely that, a great deal about all those little darlings, a style of writing termed “jumping off.”

Infectious disease is a moving target: new diseases emerge every year, old diseases evolve into new forms, and ecological and socioeconomic upheavals change the transmission pathways that spread disease. But where does disease come from? How is it transmitted from one person to another? And why are some individuals more susceptible than others? In this Very Short Introduction, Marta Wayne and Benjamin Bolker address these questions through the lenses of ecology and evolution.

Diferentemente de desastres naturais, cuja destruição está concentrada em uma área limitada por um perĂodo de dias, doenças infecciosas tĂŞm o terrĂvel poder de destruir o cotidiano das pessoas em escala global, consumindo de forma avassaladora recursos pĂşblicos e privados e interrompendo o comĂ©rcio e o transporte. No mundo de hoje, Ă© muito fácil deslocar pessoas, animais e materiais pelo planeta, mas os mesmos avanços que tornaram as infraestruturas do mundo moderno tĂŁo eficientes tambĂ©m transformaram as epidemias e pandemias em situações praticamente inevitáveis.

Em apenas dois anos o vĂrus matou mais pessoas do que a Aids em todo o mundo ao longo dos 24 anos desde a sua descoberta, e mais pessoas em um ano do que a peste negra ao longo de um sĂ©culo.

Sono organi raffinatissimi e delicati: sintetizzano, inventano, determinano il miracolo della vita. Sono i nostri polmoni, leggeri e preziosi, la loro attività non si può fermare nemmeno il tempo necessario per curarli, perché nessuno sopravvive senza ossigeno, nessuno può stare più di pochi minuti senza respirare. Quando un nuovo virus sconosciuto e letale ha cominciato a insidiare proprio i polmoni, ci siamo accorti che la maggior parte di noi li conosce pochissimo: come funzionano, cosa occorre per mantenerli in salute e cosa li mette in crisi?

Overlæge og virusforsker Anders Fomsgaard fra Statens Serum Institut har skrevet en klog, skrækfascinerende og paradoksalt underholdende bog om de virus, vi må leve med som mennesker – fra influenza og herpes hele vejen til ebola. Det handler om de grove virus, der truer os med udbrud og globale pandemier. De utilpassede virus, der egentlig burde bedrive deres spil i dyr, men kan finde på at springe på os mennesker, hvis vi kommer i vejen. De klamme virus, der går efter børn og folk med tæt kontakt til andres kroppe.

Esta es una crĂłnica en primera persona de un año que transcurriĂł a un ritmo frenĂ©tico, un libro que nos sumerge en la trastienda del poder, una pequeña sala de crisis desde la que se liderĂł y coordinĂł el trabajo de cientos de profesionales y en la que fue imposible aislarse de la gravedad y de la tensiĂłn con la que se vivĂa en España esos dĂas.

After the unprecedented events of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may be hard to imagine a time not so long ago when deadly diseases were a routine part of life. It is harder still to fathom that the best medical thinking at that time blamed these diseases on noxious miasmas, bodily humors, and divine dyspepsia. This all began to change on a day in April 1676, when a little-known Dutch merchant described bacteria for the first time. Ending Epidemics explains how we came to understand and prevent many of our worst infectious diseases—and double average life expectancy.
