One way in which humans are stubbornly non-adaptable is fighting pathogenic organisms, such as viruses. As much as we try, viruses reinvent themselves and mutate to always stay a step ahead. Human genes are painfully slow to change. Thus, the best way we can fight as a collective society against this ever-chang
