We’re Not Ready for Another Pandemic The Atlantic, June 25, 2021
"Ominous pathogens seem to arrive every few years:
SARS in 2003,
swine flu (H1N1) in 2009,
Ebola in 2014,
Zika in 2016,
COVID-19 in 2019.
The World Health Organization calls these viral threats “Disease X,”
both to encourage policymakers to think broadly about what the next pandemic might be, and because it could be anything.
At this rate, 2025 is not looking good."
