Everyone, self included, kind of jokes about the bird flu, but a flu pandemic killed literally millions right after the First World War.

How about the resurgence of TB? We never did figure out a really effective cure for it and the bacillus responsible is still alive and thriving in TB infected people everywhere.

How about a biological warfare 9/11 style attack? I don't know about your town, but in mine, its pathetically easy to take a stroll up to the local water supply and drop a few test tubes of whatever into it.

Modern medicine has made it so that we don't worry about infectous diseases as we once did. When's the last time you saw a lawyer practicing modern medicine?
