Outbreak: Epidemics in a Connected World

When people move into or change an environment, microbes that cause illness can "jump" from wildlife to humans and cause disease outbreaks that can spread internationally. Tracking down and responding to these outbreaks requires coordinated detective work from people in many professions.

This bilingual-Spanish exhibition invites you to join epidemiologists, veterinarians, public health workers, and citizens as they rush to identify and respond to infectious diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, Ebola virus, influenza, Zika virus, and others.

Bring this exhibit to your community! The panels and multimedia on display are available as part of our free Do-it-Yourself exhibit toolkit.
