Even as vaccination emerges on the horizon for Covid-19, the fight against disease is far from over. Scientists now warn that this will only be the first of many modern pandemics. The subject of infection and how to fight it grows more urgent every day. How do pathogens cause disease? And what tools can we give our bodies to do battle? Dr John Tregoning has dedicated his career to answering these questions. Infectious uncovers fascinating success stories in immunology and virology, making this book not only a vital overview of infection, but also a hopeful history of human ingenuity.
