- Summary:
- Over the years the Horizon strand has explored some of the most pressing issues in science, offering informed analysis presented in an entertaining way. This programme takes a look back through the Horizon archive at the evolution of diseases to show how issues have developed and how science itself has become more sophisticated. From HIV to Smallpox, Sars to bird flu, infectious diseases are one of the biggest threats to human life, so what have we learnt over the years? Are we any closer to understanding viruses? And will we be prepared when the next one strikes?
