In today’s interconnected world, current affairs in health reveal an alarming trend: every new development—from rising human and animal populations to increased trade and travel—heightens our vulnerability to a catastrophic epidemic. Ironically, despite a century of medical advancements, a pandemic similar in scale to the 1918 flu, which claimed an estimated hundred million lives, could be even more deadly today. As shown by the current Zika outbreak, we remain unprepared for such health crises. So what actions can—and must—we take to protect ourselves from humanity's deadliest enemies? In this compelling current affairs and health book, Michael Osterholm and Mark Olshaker separate well-founded insights from baseless fears, detailing the essential strategies and resources we need to prepare for inevitable health threats. Deadliest Enemy combines scientific suspense, a narrative of mystery and discovery, an urgent reality check, and a proactive plan for global health security.
