i was thinking about virus/diseases that could do for humankind....

at the moment we have the mosquito as a pretty effective carrier of disease - malaria being the greatest killer....now as luck would have it it's unable to carry the HIV virus (a genetic fluke for us)....

because if there was a combination of a disease that could be transfered sexually and one which that could be transmitted via carrier then we would be properly in trouble....especially if it was a disease like HIV that can lay dormant and unnoticed for years - giving it a greater potential for spread.....

we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed that the mosquito doesnt do any evolving any time soon
