It’s Nature’s way of culling the population. It has happened repeatedly throughout history, so it is bound to happen again sooner or later.

It doesn't really. Yes, it will make life shorter typically but it will have limited impact on the population overall.
On the other hand, it could mean that a tonsillitis infection will last for weeks not days and that simple surgical operations will become life threatening events.

I don't think you give mother nature enough credit, she is & I predict will unleash so REAL nasty bugs that will not only cause death but will have very severe implications for global economy. SARS was a tiny look at the future, more to come!

The over-prescription of antibiotics is causing this disaster-waiting-to-happen, IMO.
While I have often railed against the current population explosion, I have never asked for or wanted a massive epidemic. Losing a loved one is always a disaster, whether to disease or something else.
