Snakebite!

antivenom and a global health crisis
Charles C Hofer
Book - 2019

Explores the prevalence of poisonous snake bites and how many people are seriously harmed or even killed by snake poison each year--a problem that could be prevented by making antivenom medicine better available to poorer nations, especially in Africa. Discusses how antivenom is made, why it is so hard and expensive to produce, and ways it could be made more available for communities in need.
