If we remember the onset of HIV epidemics originating in America and Africa, spreading worldwide in 1980, and now 2020 Covid pandemics,within those four decades several alert have been given by WHO but sometimes ignored by EU and North America, also because effective HIV treatments has been introduced in 1999 ,bringing the numbers after 2010 definitely down and decreasing mortality in those infected from 100 to 1 percent. [...]called „small, epidemics such as SARS in 2002, Avian influenza in 1995, other zoonotic flu (swine origin) 2010, MERS 2014, Zika 2016, Ebola 2015, Yellow fever 2018, all those were transmitted by air travel but fortunately rapid cessation of air travel, draconic isolation and quarantine in focuses helped us not only to stop the epidemics early, but gave us impression that WHO and health care systems can prevent everything, protect everybody, and the scientific community has vaccines for all infectious diseases.
