Humans think themselves so "strong" and so "smart" but the reality is that some viruses continue to kill us relentlessly and we are impotent to stop it!. They will get us all in the end!. Be afraid, be very afraid!.
Thanks for your optimism!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Nah, with all our immunization research and variation of gene pools it would never happen!. If you look at the rest of the natural world, VERY rarely does a species ever get completely wiped out by a virus, and we're the only ones that wear lab coats!. Usually extinction occurs because of failure to adapt to environmental factors that do not include epidemics!. From the way I see it, humanity could be destroyed by irreversible climate and environmental change resulting from either pollution, warfare, natural processes of the Earth, or meteorites and irregularities of other planets or the sun itself!. Of course if we don't want to rule out any of the possibilities then I guess aliens could also come and wipe us out or a god (depends on which one you believe in) can appear on judgment day to punish us!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It`s my favourite part of the Matrix, when Smith compares `man` to a virus!

But when the race does die it would probably be by our own hands, not a virus infection!.Www@QuestionHome@Com This is just one of the hypothetical scenarios that will supposedly wipe out the human race! In my opinion, it will be God's "Wrath"!Www@QuestionHome@Com No, at least 10% of the population will always be immune!.Www@QuestionHome@Com i think it is possible, its almost happened before (Black Plague) Www@QuestionHome@Com It'll be flu !. !. !.Www@QuestionHome@Com It could*Www@QuestionHome@Com Yes it is known as MAN!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
