A comment on Long-dormant bacteria and viruses in ice are reviving as climate warms. Parent comment
To help you out, here are the researched facts that the article links to:
1) 1918 Spanish flu virus found in corpses buried in Alaska's tundra https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17944266
2) Study on the effects of permafrost melt in East Siberia and the 18th and 19th century deadly infections it might release http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.3402/gha.v4i0.8482
3) Results from a study on the viruses present in the corpses of Stone Age people http://www.istc.int/en/project/84980DF9853EABD94325690B000F3...
4) Frozen bodies found to have contained fragments of DNA of Smallpox virus http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1208124
5) Proof that frozen bacteria from 32,000 years ago can actually be revived http://ijs.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10...
6) Did i say 32,000 years? I meant 8million years http://www.pnas.org/content/104/33/13455
7) Not just bacteria, 30,000 year old viruses can be revived as well http://www.pnas.org/content/111/11/4274
8) Ancient bacteria are resistant to 70% of known antibiotics https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms13803
9) Many of the bacteria emerging from melting permafrost may already have antibiotic resistance because natural resistance to antibiotics is so prevalent https://www.nature.com/articles/nature10388.epdf?referrer_ac...
But yes, lets talk about facts.
