What would our world look like if no one caught the flu anymore? In this limited series, we’re looking at how we can eliminate the public health challenges that continue to plague us today and how far we are from that goal. We speak to medical microbiologist Prof Dr Jamal I-Ching Sam from Universiti Malaya to find out if influenza could cause the next pandemic and the dangers posed by transmission of the influenza virus from animals to humans.
