AI Article Synopsis
- Advancements in research and biotechnology make it easier to create or modify dangerous pathogens, increasing the risk of bioterrorism.
- The destruction of natural habitats may expose humans to new diseases carried by animals and microorganisms that were previously isolated.
- Both issues highlight the need for stronger security measures and disease monitoring to prevent outbreaks.
