Viruses have been a powerful force throughout human history. Examine how man has struggled to identify, overcome and harness the power of viruses. View the battle against the poliovirus, how it was discovered, and how a vaccine was developed against it. See the human immune system, how antibodies work and why viruses cause symptoms. Colorful 3-D computer-generated graphics will enabe viewers to understand what a virus is and how it invades a cell and hijacks that cell for its own purpose.
