Why Most Animal Viruses Never Become Human Pandemics

Most animal viruses never become pandemics because they must overcome multiple barriers, including receptor mismatch, immune defenses, inefficient replication, and limited human-to-human transmission. Ecological factors such as wildlife contact, farming systems, land-use change, and surveillance gaps also shape whether rare spillover events fade out or escalate.
