London ∙ Warning that the new ‘Disease X’ may become a more deadly global pandemic than Covid. Health expert Kate Bingham, who was the head of the UK Vaccine Task Force, came out with a warning. The World Health Organization (WHO) named the new pathogen ‘Disease X’.
“There is no confirmation that the new disease is a virus, bacteria or fungus. It is also a concern that there is currently no cure for the disease. Disease X is thought to be as virulent as the Spanish flu of 1918-20. 50 million people died worldwide that day. Similarly, the new disease will be terrible.
To combat this, the world must prepare for mass vaccination and deliver doses in record time. So far, scientists have identified a total of 25 virus families. But there are more than a million variants that have not been identified. There will also be those capable of spreading disease from one species to another.
They also opined that the increase in epidemics is the price paid by humans for modern life and world order. As countries become more connected as part of globalization, diseases can quickly become ubiquitous. More people moving to cities and people-to-people contact are fueling the spread of disease. Kate Bingham pointed out that deforestation, modern farming methods and the destruction of coal fields are the reasons for the spread of viruses.
