Pandemic: Might the World End with a Whimper? Fact v Fiction, History, Near-Term Potential
Summary:
A global pandemic can bring down civilization, but how much is fiction? Crowded third-world cities; global transportation; new, resistant strains of old scourges; engineered bioterrorist weapons.
Description:
A pandemic could collapse civilization, perhaps even destroy mankind. With third-world cities with enormous populations, primitive sanitation and health service infrastructures as an incubator, and modern transportation systems to spread new strains, a catastrophic event could be a matter of when, not if. Ebola; uncontrolled Small Pox; new, resistant strains of old scourges; engineered, weaponized agents; bioterrorism potential. These provide fertile ground for science fiction authors and screenplay writers, but what is the realistic potential of an apocalyptic pandemic? Lecture discusses pandemic history, current threats and readiness to respond, attempting to separate fact and potential from fiction and fancy. Presenter: Capt. Mark McDonagh, USN/ret., a submarine officer with 12 years’ experience at the Naval War College and with BS and MS degrees in physics, now on the NSDMG staff.
