Summary
The history of infectious diseases, the mistakes of medicine to deal with them and the onslaught of an unprecedented pandemic. Entertaining and educational, the biochemist and writer Gabriel León recounts the study of diseases throughout history, and how science discovered and controlled, many times belatedly, viruses and bacteria. The great advance that handwashing meant for medicine and how the hundreds of thousands of deaths of women during childbirth, caused precisely by lack of hygiene, could be avoided. His book declassifies these mistakes and, also, the advances of societies and medicine in the fight against pandemics that devastated the world population throughout history. He dedicates a special and detailed chapter on the covid-19 pandemic and similar flus present in recent decades
