How to Prevent the Next Pandemic

Preventing the next global pandemic: We need to reform the food system before it’s too late.

As I said in the video, cell- and plant-based meats are not the healthiest options from a personal health standpoint in terms of chronic disease, but in terms of infectious disease, they present zero pandemic risk.

Here is the whole series in case you missed any:

Thanks for watching. I hope you’ll join in the evidence-based nutrition revolution!

Note I glossed over the details of exactly how animal agriculture contributes to pandemic risk. What you need is a comprehensive book with thousands of scientific citations! Check out my latest book How to Survive a Pandemic (note: all my proceeds from this book are donated to pandemic prevention charities).

People really need to wake up and stop consuming (so much) animal products!
Better for them, better for the animals, better for the planet :)

This is the message that needs to get out to the masses and what Dr Greger should be putting his full efforts into. The previous 16 videos in the series were just a re-hashing of what the main steam media was already telling us. I have never heard any news report since the beginning of this so-called "pandemic" that mentions the root cause of all of the planet's misery. Reforming the food system should be Dr Greger's contribution to humanity. Tell us how we can help to get the message out there!!!

Go Vegan!!! It's the best thing you'll ever do.

Thank you, you are wonderful. Hoping that there will be international ban on wetmarkets and someday organic will be the only legal food allowed to be sold. Especially in school lunches. Our teeth are more like other mammals who are herbivores rather than carnivores. We physically have very little in common with carnivores. Also, animal slaughterhouses and wet markets must be eliminated. If the economy crashes, perhaps people will homestead and grow their own. How can people be so heartless to animals? Id LOVE to see how you would advise people to grow sustainable plant based diets from home. If the economy fails, we will have to be self reliant and hopefully people be more educated about the stupidity of eating animal flesh.

When mad cow disease hit, I became a vegetarian. I was a hypcrite and should have gone vegan instead...

Hello.Did you analyze the study "mortality among vegetarians and comparable non-vegetarians in the United Kingdom"? What can you say about it?
