Guarding Against the Most Dangerous Emerging Pathogens: Insights from Evolutionary Biology
Control of emerging infectious diseases will be difficult because of the large number of disease-causing organisms that are emerging or could emerge and the great diversity of geographic areas in which emergence can occur. The modern view of the evolution of pathogen virulence—specifically its focus...
