Description:
Nobel Laureate Peter Doherty offers a level-headed guide to all aspects of pandemics-what they are, how they spread, and what we can do to prevent them.Pandemics. The word conjures up images of horrific diseases sweeping the globe and killing everyone in their path. But such highly lethal illnesses almost never create pandemics. The reality is deadly serious but far more subtle.In Pandemics, Peter Doherty, who won the Nobel Prize for his work on how the immune system recognizes virus-infected cells, offers an essential guide to one of the truly life-or-death issues of our age. In concise, question-and-answer format, he explains the causes of pandemics, how they can be counteracted with vaccines and drugs, and how we can better prepare for them in the future. Doherty notes that the term "pandemic" refers not to a disease's severity but to its ability to spread rapidly over a wide geographical area. Extremely lethal pathogens are usually quickly identified and confined. Nevertheless, the rise of high-speed transportation networks and the globalization of trade and travel have radically accelerated the spread of diseases. A traveler from Africa arrived in New York in 1999 carrying the West Nile virus; one mosquito bite later, it was loose in the ecosystem. Doherty explains how the main threat of a pandemic comes from respiratory viruses, such as influenza and SARS, which disseminate with incredible speed through air travel. The climate disruptions of global warming, rising population density, and growing antibiotic resistance all complicate efforts to control pandemics. But Doherty stresses that pandemics can be fought effectively. Often s

Game changer for my truck
Size: 1.9" x 9.9" x 11.4"
I installed this K&N Lifetime Cabin Air Filter in my 2016 F-150 and noticed the difference right away. The airflow is stronger, and the cabin smells fresher even when driving through dusty or humid areas. What I really like is that it’s washable and reusable—so I won’t have to keep buying filters every year.
Fitment was perfect and install took under 10 minutes. Just pop out the old one, slide this one in, and you’re good to go. It feels solid and well made, not like those cheap paper ones. It’s definitely worth the investment, especially if you drive a lot or have allergies.
Highly recommend for anyone with a Ford or Lincoln vehicle—it pays for itself quickly!
