In Patient Zero, physician Lydia Kang and historian Nate Pedersen tell the stories of the world's worst diseases. Kang and Pedersen share the symptoms of the diseases as well as stories about the first patients who were diagnosed with the diseases. They provide information about the human battles to fight the diseases. Diseases discussed include Ebola, Covid-19, Bubonic plague, smallpox, polio, HIV, measles, and many more.
I recommend this book highly to others.
