This image may not be used in educational posters Conceptual illustration showing a strain of coronavirus (subfamily Orthocoronavirinae) becoming active after thawing from ice. Dormant bacteria and viruses have been found to survive tens of thousands of years preserved in permafrost soil and glacial ice. Climate change increases the risk of such bacteria and viruses thawing. This could potentially lead to the re-emergence of diseases or the spread of new ones.
