Epidemic, the New Threat

With a strong concentration in cities, increasing international flows, intensive livestock farming or global warming, the environment is more and more conductive to the emergence of a new threat: spreading diseases. Just like the SARS epidemic in 2003 or the H1N1 flu in 2009, each time, the apparition of a new disease brings fear to the global health authorities. Is there a risk that mutant viruses and bacteria contaminate the cities, countries or even the entire planet? How to be prepared for a possible pandemic scale? Infectious diseases are now responsible for 14 million deaths each year worldwide. A race against the clock in which researchers are committed to anticipate epidemics and to identify them as quickly as possible. Between irrational fear of contagion and scientific reality, this documentary unravels the true from the false, to better understand the magnitude of what threatens us in the decades coming.

Snapped

Who are these women and what drives them to kill? Oxygen's hit true crime series, Snapped, profiles fascinating cases of women accused of murder. Did they really do it? And if they did, why? Whether the motivation is revenge against a cheating husband, the promise of a hefty insurance payoff, or putting an end to years of abuse, the reasons are as varied as the women themselves. From socialites to secretaries, female killers share one thing in common: at some point, they all snapped. Each episode of Snapped chronicles the life of a woman who has been charged with murder. These shocking but true stories turn common assumptions about crime and criminals upside down, and prove that even the most unlikely suspects can be capable of murder.
