Although influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a familiar disease to many people, its effects can be deadly. The virus holds the record for having the highest death rate in a two-year period of any disease (1918–1919), is highly potent, and is difficult to research because it is constantly mutating. Influenza, Third Edition examines symptoms and complications of the disease, as well as treatment, prevention, and the need for flu vaccines. Chapters include: Deadly World Traveler Viral Replication “I’ve Got the Flu, What Can I Do?” Influenza—Nature’s Frequent Flyer: Prevention Dealing with Complications What May the Future Bring?
Also known as the bird flu, avian influenza is a disease that once infected only birds. However, the new avian flu virus that has emerged in Asia can be transferred from fowl to humans and has acquired the ability to infect humans with deadly results. As a result, the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are closely monitoring what could be the next deadly flu pandemic. If this virus mutates further, it may acquire the ability to be transmitted from person to person. In Avian Flu, Second Edition students will learn about the symptoms and treatments of this disease, as well as the history of influenza that led to the current form.
Many patients are confused in the coronavirus crisis and ask what they can do to prevent themselves and their family from contracting the SARS-Cov-2 virus. There are now several studies that prove the influence of micronutrients such as zinc, selenium and various vitamins on the immune system and specifically on the course of viral diseases. In this brochure, successful author Uwe Gröber, pharmacist and head of the Academy for Micronutrient Medicine in Essen, has compiled his recommendations for strengthening the immune system. Here you can learn -why micronutrients may be considered for combatting the coronavirus, -how the micronutrients are dosed and applied, and -what effects micronutrients have on the immune system. This strengthens the immune system in the fight against the coronavirus!
Wenn Monsieur Anatole die gewitzte Detektivin Phryne Fisher in sein Restaurant einlädt, ist von vorherein klar, dass er ihr nicht nur seine köstliche Zwiebelsuppe vorsetzen wird, sondern auch einen Fall für sie hat: Seine Verlobte ist verschwunden, und Phryne soll herausfinden, wer sie entführt hat. Phrynes Cleverness ist gefragt. Alle Spuren führen nach Paris – und Phryne zurück in ihre eigene Vergangenheit zwischen Spanischer Grippe, Rive Gauche und großen Gefühlen …. Glamourös, klug und unabhängig, eine moderne Frau und eine gewitzte Detektivin – das ist Miss Phryne Fisher. Die wohlhabende englische Aristokratin lässt sich in den wilden 1920er Jahren in Melbourne nieder, wo sie ihr Single-Dasein in vollen Zügen genießt – und nebenbei einen Mordfall nach dem anderen löst. Nicht immer zur Freude der örtlichen Polizei.

Im Sommer 1918 steht die Welt knietief in Blut: Der Krieg hat bereits Millionen von Opfern gefordert, die Spanische Grippe breitet sich aus, in Russland schlägt die Revolution in einen Bürgerkrieg um. Die alte Ordnung Europas wackelt und wird bald fallen. Eine ganze Generation – die Generation Y des vergangenen Jahrhunderts – steht auf einem Scherbenhaufen und schaut in eine ungewisse Zukunft. Im Sommer 1918 erscheint im Verlag Duncker & Humblot das Buch eines jungen Mannes, das Furore machen wird: Ernst Blochs Geist der Utopie. Im Angesicht des Schreckens, inspiriert von den philosophischen Strömungen der Jahrhundertwende und befeuert von den alternativen Lebensentwürfen der Reformer und Anarchisten auf dem Monte Verità, beschreibt Bloch darin den Menschen als ein radikal zur Utopie begabtes Wesen. Es ist ein Werk, das seine Zeit auf unnachahmliche Weise in Gedanken und Worte fasst, maßlos und streng, sozialistisch und messianisch, düster und voller Hoffnung. Nun ist die Zeit für eine Wiederentdeckung.
This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.
Beginning with their sources, including manure and animal feed, and detailing their development, spread and transmission to humans, Zoonotic Pathogens in the Food Chain gives an insightful introduction to and epidemiological overview of the problems raised by zoonotic pathogens. The authors specifically examine the attributes of microorganisms that allow potential contamination of food sources and the factors in modern animal production processes that contribute to the risk of infection. Chapters discuss in detail pathogens that have recently emerged as important sources of infection, investigating in depth the implications of avian flu, swine flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathies and Johne's disease for human consumers, and considering where potential mitigation strategies should be focused. With a focus on new trends in animal production, such as organic livestock farming and raw milk consumption, this text provides an interesting and up-to-date reference for researchers, academics and those with an interest in pathology working in the livestock industry.
Describing recent developments in the engineering and generation of plants as production platforms for biopharmaceuticals, this book includes both vaccines and monoclonal antibodies. It has a particular emphasis on targeting diseases which predominate in less developed countries, encompassing the current state of technologies and describing expression systems and applications. This book also includes a variety of vaccine case studies, protecting against pervasive infectious diseases such as rabies, influenza and HIV.

The Asia-Pacific area is notable as one of the fastest growing tourism regions and not surprisingly, tourism in this region has become the major driver of global tourism in general. Nonetheless, tourism industries in Asia Pacific has been challenged in recent years by a number of major crises and disasters including terrorism, outbreaks (e.g. SARS and Bird Flu), natural disasters (e.g. tsunamis, bushfires, flooding), and political crisis (e.g. protests and political instability).The aim of this book is to contribute to the understanding of crisis and disaster management generally, but with a specific focus on the Asia Pacific. With chapters contributed by international scholars and practitioners, this book discusses both the theoretical and practical approaches toward successful crisis and disaster management.
