Details

This program is offsite and being offered by The History Center of Lake Forest-Lake Bluff. Please register through The History Center's website.

Listen in on a panel discussion about epidemics across time, from early diseases that touched Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, to the AIDS epidemic in Chicago (as referenced in The Great Believers), to the present day measles outbreak. Panelists include the creator of the blood test for HIV and the inventor of the AIDS drug.

This program is offered in conjunction with Lake Forest Reads: Ragdale, a one book/one community program. The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai is the chosen title for 2019. For more information about the book and additional programs, visit www.lfreads.org.
