Disease According to the book, there are crores of viruses roaming on the earth, about which nothing is known yet. The authors of the book have claimed that just as the Spanish flu killed many people a decade ago, the next pandemic could cause the death of 50 million people.

 

Kate Bingham, former chair of the UK Vaccine Task Force, and Tim Hames, a former journalist, and political adviser, have co-written a book titled "The Next Killer: How to Stop the Next Pandemic Before It Starts". Disease X is mentioned in this book.

Most people have recovered from Covid-19. However, Ebola has a mortality rate of 67%, bird flu has 60% and MERS has 34%. To avoid future epidemics, it is necessary to research vaccines and treatments. Also, the health system and surveillance will have to be strengthened. The date when the next epidemic will come cannot be decided today, but we can start preparing in advance to face it.
