‘Disease X’ deadlier than Covid-19 could be just around the corner, top scientists warn
Another deadly pandemic triggered by ‘Disease X’ could potentially be just around the corner, a leading scientist has suggested.
On Tuesday the UK hit the grim milestone of 100,000 Covid-19 deaths after a year of the pandemic.
When Keir Starmer asked Boris Johnson during Prime Minister’s Questions yesterday why so many had died, he said the middle of a pandemic was not the time to ask such questions.
Yet according to one infectious disease expert, another pandemic could be just around the corner, meaning the time to act preventively is now.
A leading British scientist has suggested another pandemic-causing Disease X could be around the corner - and it is a matter of when, not if .
Professor Mark Woolhouse added that it is difficult to tell when such a disease may emerge, and the precise mechanism of how it comes out is always unpredictable.
The expert in infectious disease epidemiology at the University of Edinburgh said that pandemic flu is at the top of the list for outbreaks to be concerned about, but he added that there is a whole range of other viruses to be aware of.
Mr Woolhouse told how he and some colleagues got the World Health Organisation to add something called Disease X to its list of priority diseases four years ago.
