| Abstract: | We report the emergence of a new production chain for commercial food that aims to maximize profit to the detriment of the environment and traditional communities in the Amazonian region. In addition, the combination of environmental impact and the raising of confined animals (including pigs and poultry), in locations where the animals may have contact with other diseases carries the danger of generating a new pandemic of worldwide proportions. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. |
