Global warming can threaten mankind with epidemics of unknown diseases.
Biologists from the French University of AIX-Marseille I believe that climate change will awaken the bacteria and viruses that centuries were in a frozen state.
According to scientists, viruses which affect the mankind even in ancient times, when the cold can preserve and thus preserved. Frozen mail – better place to keep bacteria alive for a long time.
“Permafrost is a very good protection for germs and viruses, because it’s cold, and it has no oxygen, and dark,” says a biologist of the University Jean-Michel Clavery.
2014 Clavery is exploring the microorganisms present in permafrost. He managed to detect several pathogenic viruses that pose a threat to humanity. According to him, today the regions with frozen soil are unoccupied. However, currently it is also possible the revival of viruses in the course of drilling and mining.
One of the threats can be viruses, which affect the Neanderthals. To them the human immune system may not be ready due to the long lack of contact with their carriers. French scientists believe that it’s impossible to talk about the ability of mankind to forever rid yourself of infections and epidemics.
