Watch EP1 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/poHGiqeBf82KrJI Watch EP2 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2imqpqul9Weq5Y Almost five years after COVID-19 was discovered, disease experts say we’re unprepared for future pandemics. Funding to prepare for catastrophic outbreaks is lacking and vaccine distribution remains unequal. The risk of an infectious virus spreading to humans from animals continues to grow, fuelled by rapid urbanisation and the destruction of the environment. Misinformation, conspiracy theories and apathy around vaccines are rampant. Amid these challenges, a landmark 3-part Al Jazeera series explores the lessons of the worst health crisis of the 21st century and meets those trying to ‘pandemic proof’ the planet.
