Throughout history, humans have been
no strangers to infectious diseases and
epidemics - from the Bubonic Plague in
the 5th century that brought Athens to
its knees, to the Spanish flu that gave its
deadly kiss to one-third of the world’s
population. Covid-19 is only the newest
actor in the theatre of human history.
Before globalisation, with fewer
possibilities of travel across continents,
the capacity of these diseases to evolve
into pandemics and monumental threats
to human survival were limited.
Modernisation has greatly amplified this
capacity, forcing us to think; is
prevention more important than cure?
