My interest in Murphy's review and analysis stems precisely from its initial assumption that the beginning point for eventual control begins with discovery. It certainly seems a reasonable place to begin with. However, most of the above argument about globalization suggests, paradoxically, otherwise. That argument says, in effect, that if we continue along the road that globalization is taking us, we may be "producing" diseases in ways that overwhelm the capacity of systems to deal with them if they are actuated at the point of discovery.
