Reading Comprehension(cont.)One of the fears haunting policy makers is the appearance of a pathogen, either manmade or natural,able to devastate mankind, as the “Black Death” did in the Middle East and Europe in the middle of theFourteenth Century. Within barely a year, approximately a third of Europe’s population died. The secondand third-order effects of the pandemic on society, religion, and economics were devastating. In effect,the Black Death destroyed the sureties undergirding Medieval European civilization.It is not likely that a pandemic on this scale will devastate mankind over the next two decades. Eventhough populations today are much larger and more concentrated, increasing the opportunities for anew pathogen to spread, the fact that mankind lives in a richer world with greater knowledge of theworld of microbes, the ability to enact quarantines, a rapid response capability, and medical treatmentsuggest that authorities could control even the most dangerous of pathogens. The crucial element inany response to a pandemic may be the political will to impose quarantine.The rapid identification and response to the 2009 H1N1 flu strain and the rapid termination of the 2003Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) pandemic illustrate the seriousness with which medicalauthorities view these. In the case of SARS, after initial reports surfaced from East Asia in February ofan atypical respiratory disease, medical authorities reported more than 8,000 cases in 30 differentcountries. The disease itself was highly contagious and life-threatening: almost 10% of reported casesdied. However, once doctors identified the disease, the combined efforts of local, national, andinternational authorities contained it within five months. Newly reported cases increased rapidly inMarch and April 2003, peaked in early May, and rapidly declined thereafter.One Team, One Family, One Mission78
Reading Comprehension(cont.)The H1N1 and SARS examples do not mean, however, that the threat of social disorder or disruptionoriginating from a viral source requiring Joint Force capabilities is nonexistent. A repetition of the 1918influenza pandemic, which led to the deaths of millions world-wide, would have the most seriousconsequences for the United States and the world politically as well as socially. The dangers posed bythe natural emergence of a disease capable of launching a global pandemic are serious enough, but thepossibility exists also that a terrorist organization might acquire a dangerous pathogen.The deliberate release of a deadly pathogen, especially one genetically engineered to increase itslethality or virulence, would present greater challenges than a naturally occurring disease like SARS.While the latter is likely to have a single point of origin, terrorists could seek to release the pathogen atseveral different locations in order to increase the rate of transmission across a population. This wouldseriously complicate both the medical challenge of bringing the disease under control and the securitytask of fixing responsibility for its appearance.The implications for the Joint Force of a pandemic as widespread and dangerous as that of 1918 wouldbe profound. American and global medical capabilities would soon find themselves overwhelmed. If theoutbreak spreads to the United States, the Joint Force might have to conduct relief operations ins
