When I got that only 1 to 4 billion would survive this century to be there for the 2100 new Years Day I wondered how the population got so low. Now, I'm understanding more about this every single day by what I'm seeing now. When I sensed the likelihood of more pandemics I get about a 75% chance of more pandemics like the one we are presently experiencing. Would they be human caused?
The important thing here is whether or not this one was intentional or not from a person or a government, this sort of thing is inevitable to occur again just under the basic laws of probability this century. So, I give it about 75% that one or more pandemics the same or worse than this one will arrive and spread worldwide like this one did before 2100 AD.
And when you combine this with hurricanes, rising sea levels, cities on the ocean going underwater one by one you really get a sense of how we eventually arrive at 1 to 4 billion people left alive on earth in 2100 AD.
And it's important to realize that the earth can ONLY support (ON THE SURFACE) if everyone lives on the surface, about 1 billion people for thousands of years ongoing at a time.
This also fits in with the 6th Great Extinction of life on earth that has been occurring for the last several years caused by human overpopulation in various places on earth.
As species go extinct one by one this also might cause humans to move towards extinction too through pandemics like this one.
However, I don't think humans are going to go extinct as long as they are smart enough about how they handle things this century. But, it's pretty certain that the pandemics are going to keep on coming throughout this century and the next with or without vaccines to stop them.
In fact, a vaccine for this one likely would only hasten the next one to be worse than this one was in eliminating larger groups of mankind.
Scientifically speaking, it is only logical to assume this for a variety of reasons.
