10 years ago I watched a news magazine show, forget which one, but the story was about new viruses doctors were starting to see and how scared the experts were about the future. They had interviews with some of the world's leading virologists and infectious diseases doctors and scientists, they were already seeing new strains of viruses and were warning about new super viruses that they said they doubted the arsenal of medications we have now would be effective stopping and the newer anti viral drugs in the pipeline might not even be any help or arrive in time.

The theory is that modern medicine and ourselves are to blame. The success we have had with antiobiotics and other drugs -doctors and patients have gone way overboard prescribing those drugs every time a patient comes into a doctor's office he isn't satisified until the doctor gives him/her a prescription -
it's the overuse of the drugs that they were saying has lead these once controllable viruses/diseases to mutate into stronger bugs that medicine won't be able to catch up to before they kill thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of people.
