Exploitation of wildlife is the biggest threat to biodiversity in many Southeast Asian countries.

That's a major threat to many endangered species, and also a direct threat to all of us https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

Recently, one group of biologists collected 140,000 samples from animals. They identified 1,000 new viruses.

But merely listing these pathogens isn't enough. We need to reduce how often those pathogens come into contact with humans https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

A disease caused by a virus or bacteria that originates in another animal is known as zoonosis.

Zoonotic pathogens are a persistent menace all over the world – and some researchers are making progress on finding out how many exist https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

More important will be changing human practices so that people and animal-borne pathogens come into less frequent contact.

It's ironic — and tragic — that this pandemic is another consequence of our ever-increasing impact on the natural world https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

We need to act before the next one starts.

We can start by developing the capacity to predict where the next disease will most likely emerge https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

The high-risk zones for new infections turn out to lie mostly in tropical regions — where biodiversity is high — undergoing significant land-use change https://t.co/aH3139x8tD

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

Human activities are increasingly expanding into unpopulated areas, such as:

👩‍🌾🌽Agriculture
🌲🪓Forestry
👷⛏️Mining
🚧🛢️Oil exploration

These tasks wind up disrupting and destroying animals' natural habitats https://t.co/aH3139OJSd

[Bloomberg Opinion @opinion]

Scientists knew that a pandemic of some kind was on the horizon

In the past few decades, we've seen ever-more-frequent outbreaks of new infectious diseases, as viruses or bacteria hop from animal hosts into people https://t.co/aH3139OJSd
