      Which of the following categories do you think presents the greatest existential threat to humanity?

      Of these only artificial intelligence and perhaps some extreme climate change seem actually existential.

          Drug resistant diseases will be a massive problem, we are no developing new antibiotics or phage therapies. It will however likely return us to the pre -940s equilibrium of disease burden rather than push us to extinction.

          I don't think this is actually true, I think drug resistant diseases will mostly linger in hospitals and not other places due to the evolutionary competition diseases undergo. There are also pretty big limits to how "resistant" earth life forms can be to eg antiseptics

          It will still be awkward when the obvious response to this would be a move to specialized home care, family doctors and disease specific sanatoriums. The institutions will refuse to adapt and will cost many lives.

          If hospitals become this lethal, and our institutions remain this sclerotic, I would not be surprised if laws forcing people who were rationally cautious about infections, to be brough to hospitals.

          I mean, ambulances already bring you there by default.

          That is mostly financial risk however...

          Hospitals are already nests of infectious disease, they're just not literally classed as 'drug resistant x'. My uncle got hep c from a bad transfusion.
