Tino F. Schwarz Bücher

The book explores the implications of human mobility on the spread of infections, particularly through modern air travel, which undermines quarantine measures. It highlights how diseases, once confined to specific regions, can emerge in non-endemic areas, complicating diagnosis and treatment. The content is derived from an international symposium focusing on "Imported Virus Infections," emphasizing the epidemiology and prevention of various viruses, especially filoviruses, which notably resurfaced in Zaire in 1995. The symposium honored virologist Friedrich Deinhardt's legacy.
