Microbes Inc. Good bugs, bad bugs -- Humans vs. microbes -- Bugs in our world. Bugs in the air -- Bugs we eat and drink -- Bugs in the neighbourhood -- Travel bugs -- Top 10 myths and truths about bugs -- Top 10 ways to stay healthy.
"As a physician who has spent the better part of the last three decades chasing bugs all over the world -- from Ebola in Uganda to polio in Pakistan, SARS in Toronto, and the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak in British Columbia -- Dr. Bonnie Henry, a leading epidemiologist (microbe hunter) and public health doctor, offers three simple rules to live by clean your hands, cover your mouth when you cough, and stay home when you have a fever. From viruses to bacteria to parasites and fungi, Dr. Henry takes us on a tour through the halls of Microbes Inc., providing up-to-date and accurate information on everything we eat and drink the bugs in our backyard, and beyond. Lively, informative, and fascinating, Soap and Water & Common Sense is the definitive guide to staying healthy in a germ-filled world."-- Provided by publisher.
