O cavaleiro da Morte by David Quammen Book Summary

Neste capítulo de Contágio, publicado originalmente em 2012, David Quammen investiga como as doenças de origem animal passam a afetar humanos — tal como o novo coronavírus — e o que podemos aprender com as principais pandemias da história.

O ponto de partida deste texto eletrizante é o caso do vírus Hendra, que atingiu primeiro cavalos e depois humanos na Austrália. A partir desse episódio, Quammen examina em detalhes o processo de spillover — quando infecções que começam no reino animal migram para os humanos —, narrando a busca dos pesquisadores para encontrar a origem da doença. Para o autor, as relações que os humanos travaram com o ambiente ao longo da história são cruciais para o surgimento das zoonoses e, por isso, a sequência de epidemias que sofremos ao longo dos séculos não é mera coincidência.
Este capítulo é parte de Contágio, livro assustadoramente antecipatório sobre as pandemias de origem animal, publicado em 2012.
"Contágio é uma obra-prima fascinante do jornalismo científico, ao estilo de uma história de detetive." — Walter Isaacson, autor de Steve Jobs

"Pertinente e assustador." — New York Times
