Cómo Evitar La Próxima Pandemia / How to Prevent the Next Pandemic

La pandemia de la COVID-19 a?n no ha terminado, pero mientras los gobiernos del mundo entero tratan de dejarla atr?s, ya se plantean qu? pasar? a continuaci?n. C?mo podemos evitar que una pr?xima pandemia les arrebate la vida a millones de personas y hunda la econom?a global? Podemos siquiera albergar la esperanza de alcanzar esta meta? Bill Gates cree que la respuesta es s?, y en este libro explica de un modo claro y convincente qu? deber?amos haber aprendido de la COVID-19 y qu? podemos hacer cada uno de nosotros para evitar un desastre parecido. Bas?ndose en los conocimientos de los principales expertos mundiales y en su propia experiencia combatiendo enfermedades mortales a trav?s de la Fundaci?n Gates, logra, en primer lugar, ayudarnos a entender, desde un punto de vista cient?fico, c?mo funcionan las enfermedades infecciosas. Despu?s, nos ense?a que, si las naciones del mundo a?nan esfuerzos y al mismo tiempo trabajan codo con codo con el sector privado, no solo podr?n prevenir otra cat?strofe como la de la COVID, sino tambi?n eliminar todas las afecciones respiratorias, incluso la gripe. Este es un llamamiento intenso, exhaustivo y de suma importancia realizado por uno de nuestros m?s grandes y m?s eficaces pensadores y activistas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the author of the #1 New York Times best seller How to Avoid a Climate Disaster The COVID-19 pandemic isn't over, but even as governments around the world strive to put it behind us, they're also starting to talk about what happens next. How can we prevent a new pandemic from killing millions of people and devastating the global economy? Can we even hope to accomplish this? Bill Gates believes the answer is yes, and in this book he lays out clearly and convincingly what the world should have learned from COVID-19 and what all of us can do to ward off another disaster like it. Relying on the shared knowledge of the world's foremost experts and on his own experience of combating fatal diseases through the Gates Foundation, he first helps us understand the science of infectious diseases. Then he shows us how the nations of the world, working in conjunction with one another and with the private sector, can not only ward off another COVID-like catastrophe but also eliminate all respiratory diseases, including the flu. Here is a clarion call --strong, comprehensive, and of the gravest importance-- from one of our greatest and most effective thinkers and activists.
