Tracking New Viruses
How can ecosystem monitoring be improved to respond quickly to the early stages of a new epidemic? How do scientists scrutinize the hot spots of contamination around the world? This investigation tracks emerging viruses and follows veterinarians, biologists and doctors whose goal is to understand, monitor and better protect the direct human-animal interfaces. The agreed aim is to prevent rather than to cure. But also to limit threats to biodiversity. Because the fewer species there are between the infected animal and man, the greater the risk of propagation. Let’s follow in the footsteps of the sentinels in white coats at the forefront of tomorrow's infectious diseases.
