"Black Swan" - the scourge of modernity?

– Against the evils caused by today's epidemiological crisis, in fact, only doctors, epidemiologists and virologists are fighting, - says the Professor – - Paying due respect to the heroic efforts of doctors and virologists, many of whom literally risk their lives performing their professional duties in various regions of the world, we can not but admit that their efforts alone are clearly not enough. In the context of the state of emergency imposed in Kazakhstan in connection with the coronavirus pandemic, there is no doubt that the scientific community of our country is simply obliged to concentrate efforts in the fight against this evil. The world is facing not just another outbreak of mutagenic infection – we are already talking about an epidemiological crisis, where real threats to public health, economic and geopolitical problems are intertwined in a tight tangle. And in such circumstances, the final word in the search for an answer should belong to scientists. After all, science – that is, the social institution through which modern civilization exists – was created so that man could resist the destructive forces of nature.
