American Museum of Natural History's Teen SciCafe presents: Species-Jumping Viruses with Marc Valitutto, V.M.D

What do Zika, West Nile, Ebola, HIV, and SARS CoV-2 all have in common? They are all zoonotic viruses, viruses that affect other species and have evolved to infect humans, who can in turn pass viruses to other species.

Join Marc Valitutto, V.M.D., senior field veterinarian for the EcoHealth Alliance, to learn about how zoonotic viruses jump from one species to another and how scientists are using this information to prepare for and prevent future pandemics.

This event will be held in-person at AMNH; FREE with RSVP.
