  • Dig into the history of pandemics to learn how viruses and disease spreads and what we can do to stop future outbreaks.
    --
    In our increasingly globalized world, a single infected person can board a plane and spread a virus across continents. Mark Honigsbaum describes the history of pandemics and how that knowledge can help halt future outbreaks.

      +Ghost Child Yes. Anywhere people settle down, there will be dome disease. That said, you have to define "colonize" to understand the risk and scale of disease possible. If everyone is in space suits and eating climate controlled food, the risk of disease is very low, but if you are talking full planetary teraforming, the sky is the limit for disease. Add in the risk of exposure to foreign bacteria we have no exposure to and it would be a major concern.

      Not only that, but something far more worrying - viruses and bacteria evolve as a response to the environment they are living in. Currently the only difference between middle of the desert and Antarctica is temperature fluctuation. With colonizing other planets, these microbes will be presented with so much more: different temperature, radiation level, gravitational force, atmospheric pressure, chemical composition of the atmosphere... And viruses and bacteria will change because of these things in a way we can't predict.

      But that quote is right--science DOES give us the ability to detect pandemics right at the very beginning and to take actions to mitigate injuries and deaths. The problem is the politicians. The COVID global disaster showed us again and again that if the right people are not in power, the pandemic will spiral out of control and cause even more damage and havoc. Especially if those politicians lie endlessly, cause confusion on purpose, and demonize and scapegoat the science and scientists for their political benefit...

      COVID-19 has gotten out and has probably already infected 1 million people around the world. (347,000 is the worldwide official count as of March 22, but tests are not being given out widely to see the true extent of infections.) This is leagues more people than SARS or Ebola. And this is exponential growth EVERY FEW DAYS! So a few days from now I expect 2 million people to be infected, and a few days later 4 million, and a few days after that 8 million. This is not going to end well...

Add to that countries closing borders which caused a lot of people travelling to their country of origin (think people on work permits, students etc.) the lack of action from governments when in january, february, as late as first week of march led to this situation.

    CoVid -19 already been a pandemic. And here in Philippines we panic buy everything, no alcohol in stores, no masks, no work mostly in Luzon. As of now Luzon is on community quarantine, visayas and mindanao didn't announced its quarantine status yet, but thanks to local government, they're making their part but having medical checkpoints, but I know there is asymptomatic people there spreading disease and Visayas and Mindanao are very vulnerable right now because no total lockdown as of now. march 16, 2020. I hope no one get serious spread here in Philippines. And hopefully people don't critisize and made false news, giving connection to politics to every move the government made. Government knows how to handle this so lets trust our government. And I hope people will follow the government as to stay at home and be hygienic. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm from visayas Bohol. I have no work because I work on tourism sector. No tourist, no work. Hopefully this f***ing virus will fade away by itself nor find a cure as soon as possible. 😌
