    For two years the COVID-19 pandemic has upended the world. The physician and medical historian Jacalyn Duffin presents a global history of the virus, with a focus on Canada.  
Duffin describes the frightening appearance of the virus and its identification by scientists in China; subsequent outbreaks on cruise ships; the relentless spread to Europe, the Americas, Africa, and elsewhere; and the immediate attempts to confront it. COVID-19 next explores the scientific history of infections generally, and the discovery of coronaviruses in particular. Taking a broad approach, the book explains the advent of tests, treatments, and vaccines, as well as the practical politics behind interventions, including quarantines, barrier technologies, lockdowns, and social and financial supports. In concluding chapters Duffin analyzes the outcome of successive waves of COVID-19 infection around the world: the toll of human suffering, the successes and failures of control measures, vaccine rollouts, and grassroots opposition to governments’ attempts to limit the spread and mitigate social and economic damages.  
Closing with the fraught search for the origins of COVID-19, Duffin considers the implications of an “infodemic” and provides an cautionary outlook for the future.

    Pneumonia is a serious lung infection that affects millions of people worldwide, ranging from mild cases to life-threatening conditions. It occurs when the air sacs in one or both lungs become inflamed and fill with fluid or pus, making it difficult for oxygen to reach the bloodstream. This inflammation can result from various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Pneumonia can occur as a complication of another illness or as a primary infection, and it affects people of all ages, though certain groups, such as the elderly, young children, and individuals with compromised immune systems, are at higher risk. 
Understanding pneumonia starts with recognizing the different types of the disease. The most common types are bacterial, viral, and fungal pneumonia, each caused by different pathogens and each requiring distinct treatment approaches. Bacterial pneumonia is typically caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, which is the most common bacterial pathogen responsible for hospitalizations. Other bacteria, such as Haemophilus influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus, can also lead to pneumonia. Viral pneumonia, often caused by influenza viruses, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and coronaviruses, is another common form, and its severity can vary based on the viral strain and the individual’s overall health. Fungal pneumonia is less common and typically occurs in individuals with weakened immune systems, with fungi like Histoplasma, Coccidioides, and Cryptococcus causing infections.
