The Original Sin (I° Part) Man adventure on the planet earth starts with the Original Sin, that is with the evolution from the anthropomorphic monkey to Homo erectus[1],[2] through the stages of Australopithecus africanus[3] and Homo habilis[4].
Computer Virus Always to the work of man, since they are his exclusive creatures, the origin and diffusion of Computer Viruses is due to. In spite of its human origin, the computer virus follows, how it multiplies and spreads inside other hosts, the same rules biological viruses [1] make use of, and this is an evidence that nature laws are also applied to the exclusive work of man as a descendant of nature itself.
The Cow Madness And The Prion Genius All that concerns the so called mad cow disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) just repeats what we have seen till now. An intensive animal breeding, an infective agent capable to pass to man and bring about Creutzefeldt-Jakob (C J)’s disease which can cause the death of the affected subjects in about six months or one year; and also various suspicions and denials, economic interests thwarting the search after truth.
Emerging Viruses 6°: Ebola Virus Another consideration coming from the recent epidemics of philoviruses (Ebola Virus-Emerging Viruses) is that just the means man made use of to treat diseases cause their outset and their spreading.
Emerging Viruses 5° Therefore also human species should be ready to carry out, in case of a pandemic caused by emerging viruses at very high mortality, the mechanism at genetic feedback. This way all the people, who are sensitive to the pathogen (emerging virus) should die and only the ones genetically resistant to the virus (emerging viruses) should survive. Obviously all this suggests the assertion of the already quoted theory David Pimentel expressed: “viruses and bacteria which attack an animal or a plant and live for long, don’t evolve towards types at high reproductivity and greater pathogenicity[1]” and again ” the evolution push is towards reproductive types which can give a balanced economy of supply and demand between prey species and preyed ones[2]”.
