What the doctors didn't know.
Most of our modern disease epidemics have arisen from the same cause as the Bubonic Plague epidemic of the 1300s that wiped out approximately one quarter of Europe's population. Overpopulation in the animal world will usually cause nature to respond with a disease to kill off excess animal numbers and bring the population of the host animal back into balance with its natural environment. Such diseases are called "zoonotic" because they arise from the animal world and can often transfer to the human population. In our modern high tech world we certainly don't have to worry about these types of disease epidemics anymore, or do we?
In the early 1970s doctors in southwestern Connecticut struggled with hundreds of new cases of "Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis" in young children, but the cause of this crippling disease always remained a mystery. Then in 1975, a sudden increase in cases in the small town of Lyme, Connecticut caused doctors to launch an investigation into finding a cause for this epidemic. Doctors first noticed that most of the cases were occurring in children who played near wooded areas. It was soon determined that in all cases, the children had been bitten by a tick just prior to the development of the disease. Lyme disease is caused by a microbe known as a "spirochete" that also cause diseases such as Syphilis, Yaws, and Leptospirosis which can lie dormant within the body for many years damaging the body's organs over time.
Lyme Disease was mistakenly labelled as "Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis" for many years because doctors failed to take notice of ecological changes happening in the natural environment of southwestern Connecticut. In spite of numerous technological advances in modern medicine, it's still a fact that our modern medical professionals do not realize that nearly all modern disease epidemics result from man's ignorance of the laws of nature. Modern medical professionals still do not understand the important role that disease mechanisms play in God's perfectly balanced ecosystem.
