Exploring the role of human archaea, this book delves into their ability to secrete RNA and DNA viruses, acting as reservoirs for pathogens like SARS, MERS, and HIV. It highlights the process by which these archaea, particularly in bats and the human gut, generate viroids that can hybridize with gut microbiome DNA and human genomic sequences. This hybridization may lead to the emergence of new retroviruses, posing significant risks of pandemics and the potential extinction of humanity. The interconnectedness of archaea, viruses, and human health is a central theme.
