Content

Na het coronavirus verrassen infectieziekten zoals het apenpokkenvirus de wereld. In Poxx geeft oud-RIVM-directeur Roel Coutinho duiding. In de achttiende eeuw was pokken een alom gevreesde ziekte en een belangrijke doodsoorzaak. Totdat Edward Jenner aantoonde dat mensen na besmetting met koepokken niet meer vatbaar zijn voor menselijke pokken: ’s werelds eerste vaccin was een feit. Ondanks verzet van de eerste antivaxers werd Jenners vaccin snel in gebruik genomen. Toch duurde het nog bijna twee eeuwen voordat pokken de wereld uit was.Althans, de wereld uit? De recente uitbraak van het apenpokkenvirus laat zien dat verwante virussen zich ook vandaag de dag nog verrassend snel kunnen verspreiden. Zolang het pokkenvirus wordt bewaard in laboratoria blijft er bovendien een risico op onvoorziene infecties – of, in het slechtste geval, op inzet van het virus als biologisch wapen. In Poxx put oud-RIVM-directeur Roel Coutinho uit zijn eigen ervaring met de succesvolle bestrijding van pokken in Bangladesh. Hij maakt haarfijn duidelijk dat infectieziekten ons altijd zullen blijven belagen.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
