Her e I would like to present my experiences with a few of the viral diseases I have worked with over the years with emphasis of animal origins. With re search teams in Asia\, Africa and the Mediterranean\, my field work in urb an and rural areas shows that the evolving nature of epidemics are a compl ex mixture of virus\, culture\, attitudes\, government involvement and hyg iene. With careful planning I believe we will be able to control pandemics in the next millennium.\n DTSTART:20230308T203000Z DTEND:20230308T213000Z LOCATION:Room 504\, McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1Y 6\, 3655 promenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:EToH Seminar Series: Pox Viruses\, Rift Valley Fever virus\, and SA RS-CoVs\, case stories of zoonotic infections URL:/sbms/etoh-5 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
