微生物存在于我们身上、我们体内和我们周围。它们几乎栖息在地球上的每一个环境中,而普通人携带的细菌(主要是在肠道中)的数量超过了人类细胞。绝大多数微生物对我们无害,许多微生物对植物、动物和人类的健康都起着至关重要的作用。然而,其他病原体要么是专性的,要么是兼性的,对宿主产生一系列有害影响。直到最近,传染病一直是人类最常见的死亡原因,远远超过战争或饥荒造成的死亡人数。从人类诞生之日起,纵观整个历史,传染病塑造了人类的进化、人口学、移民和历史。
Microbes are found on us, within us and around us. They inhabit virtually every environment on the planet and the bacteria carried by an average human, mostly in their gut, outnumber human cells. The vast majority of microbes are harmless to us, and many play essential roles in plant, animal and human health. Others, however, are either obligate or facultative pathogens exerting a spectrum of deleterious effects on their hosts. Infectious diseases have historically represented the most common cause of death in humans until recently, exceeding by far the toll taken by wars or famines. From the dawn of humanity and throughout history, infectious diseases have shaped human evolution, demography, migrations and history.
