Summary

Note: This is a summary, analysis, and review of the book and not the original book.

If you go through history, you will notice that many of the main turning points were preceded by an outbreak of disease. We have small pox and the black plague as the ones that stand out the most. With the breakthroughs in modern technology we have been able to successfully curtail many of these diseases. However, that does not mean we are immune from future outbreaks.

For example, HIV may not be the bubonic plague, but it has devastated millions of lives and continues to do so despite the new drugs that control it. We recently had an outbreak of Ebola in Africa that managed to hitch a ride back to the United States and other western countries. It doesn't take that much for a pandemic to take root.

Sonia Shah, in her wonderful book Pandemic: Tracking Contagions, from Cholera to Ebola and Beyond, goes into some depth as to how we need to prepare for a future pandemic. In this review, we will analyze, discuss, and summarize the key points in Pandemic: Tracking Contagions, from Cholera to Ebola and Beyond. Enjoy!
