The growing anthropogenic immune deficit and the COVID-19 pandemic
The last 10 years, despite global scientific and technological progress, there has been an outbreak of chronic diseases, viral epidemics and pandemics, with a significant number of deaths, depletion of health systems and rising healthcare costs, leading to devastating economic, political and social consequences. Here, we describe briefly the human defence system, how environmental factors and mechanisms interfere with it, and the correlation with chronic exposure to environmentally toxic mixtures. Also, we examine the technologies that can increase viral aggression, focusing on the recent COVID-19 pandemic of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
