Science Nonfiction Book Group “Spillover” – Zoom/Online

Booklovers come together to explore science and history topics in-depth.

We will discuss “Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic” by David Quammen.

Supposedly, the world was taken by surprise when Covid-19 hit, but the recognition of animals – and our interactions with them – as the source of disease is well recognized. This book was published before our most recent pandemic, but looking for emergent diseases and trying to avert them is a 24/7 project. Every year, several diseases from animals are identified.

All are welcome. We currently gather on Zoom. Contact us for the meeting link.
