Scientists are warning of so-called "zombie viruses", also known as Methuselah microbes, which are frozen in the Arctic permafrost. Since these bacteria and viruses have been frozen for thousands of years at sub-zero temperatures and low oxygen levels, they could be released when temperatures rise and trigger serious disease outbreaks on the planet.https://polarjournal.ch/en/2024/04/12/arctic-zombie-viruses-could-trigger-a-new-pandemic/
