- Panic In The Street: How Psychology Shaped The Response To An Epidemic
- It sounds like a movie plot: police discover the body of a young man who's been murdered. The body tests positive for a deadly infectious disease. Authorities trace the killing to a gang. They race to find the gang members, who may also be incubating the virus. This week on Hidden Brain, we revisit our 2016 story about disease, panic, and how a public health team used psychology to confront an epidemic.
- An Unfinished Lesson: What The 1918 Flu Tells Us About Human Nature
