Epidemic, the New Threat

With a strong concentration in cities, increasing international flows, intensive livestock farming or global warming, the environment is more and more conductive to the emergence of a new threat: spreading diseases. Just like the SARS epidemic in 2003 or the H1N1 flu in 2009, each time, the apparition of a new disease brings fear to the global health authorities. Is there a risk that mutant viruses and bacteria contaminate the cities, countries or even the entire planet? How to be prepared for a possible pandemic scale? Infectious diseases are now responsible for 14 million deaths each year worldwide. A race against the clock in which researchers are committed to anticipate epidemics and to identify them as quickly as possible. Between irrational fear of contagion and scientific reality, this documentary unravels the true from the false, to better understand the magnitude of what threatens us in the decades coming.
