We've changed the world tremendously in the process of our development. And this has led the pace for development of new infections. As weve changed the world, microbes have evolved and begun to fill ecological niches that werent there before. So, were setting the stage for the emergence of more and more infections. We are still trying to combat existing diseases. AIDS has killed more than 20 million people. Malaria still kills 2.7 million people a year. The future of our species is uncertain. But our skills are unparalleled. We know how to survive. Now, we must add wisdom to that knowledge.
