| The information contained in War Against the Germs: Epidemics, Microorganisms, and Biowarfare, will interest the medical, nursing, and PA clinical practitioners, as well as the knowledgeable public who would like a broad overview of the problems and ways to overcome pandemics. The prospects for pandemics have increased with rising population, closeness, travel, and the real possibility of laboratory leaks or purposeful attack. War Against the Germs discusses the kinds of microorganisms, including COVID, that have caused past epidemics and may take part in future ones (whether naturally or artificially created), the strengths and weaknesses of the microorganisms in causing disease, and our potential weapons against them―the immune system, antimicrobial drugs, immunizations, isolation, testing, and government and social measures. |
