Engrossing true stories of the pioneers of epidemiology who risked
their lives to find the source of deadly diseases-now revised to
include updated information and a new chapter on Covid-19. More
people have died in disease epidemics than in wars or other
disasters, but the process of identifying these diseases and
determining how they spread is often a terrifying gamble.
Epidemiologists have been ignored, mocked, or silenced all while
trying to protect the population and identify "patient zero"-the
first person to have contracted the disease, and a key piece in
solving the epidemic puzzle. Patient Zero tracks the gripping tales
of eight epidemics and pandemics-how they started, how they spread,
and the fight to stop them. This revised edition combines a
brand-new design with updated information and features diseases
such as Spanish Influenza, Ebola, and AIDS, as well as a new
chapter on Covid-19.
