MANKIND is on a collision course with nature around the world which could trigger an outbreak known as Disease X which could be worse than the Black Death.
Scientists have predicted we could face a health emergency or pandemic every five years likely caused by zoonotic diseases - when infections jump from animals to humans.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) announced this week it believes Covid is likely one of these types of infections as it is believed to have crossed from animals such as bats to humans.
It has been warned even more deadly diseases like this are on the horizon - with warnings the next pandemic could be on the scale of the Black Death, which is estimated to have killed 75million people.
