How to prevent the next pandemic

How to prevent the next pandemic
Author: Gates, Bill
Year: 2023
Language: English
Type: Moon
Content type: Bibliography
Publisher: Penguin Books
Physical or Electronic: Physical
Note: Originally published: New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2022 Before Bill Gates became an expert on climate science, he was known as one of the few who studied pandemics - how they start, how they spread, how they can be controlled. He warned us years ago in a now-famous TED Talk of their arrival in our future. The future, of course, is now, and now is when we have to plan against a next one. This book is a clear and upbeat plan of what every country, every government leader, and every individual can do in order to help prevent another pandemic, grounded in Bill's firsthand experience with the Gates Foundation's commitment to fighting COVID-19.
