How many species does a typical pathogen effect?

No such thing as a typical pathogen, for example a pathogen can be non-living such as a virus.

You'll want to ask on a species by pathogen by pathogen basis.

Rabies effects mostly mammals but can infect birds too. HPV only infects humans.

On /an/ we were talking about living in the carboniferous era, and one guy said you'd die from diseases that you wouldn't have immunity to

I agree
>has dna
>evolves very time

That's like calling parasites non living because they can't survive without a host either

Educate yourself you slob:

viruses exist in the form of independent particles ... consisting of:
(i) .. either DNA or RNA,
(ii) a protein coat
(iii) an envelope of lipids that surrounds the protein coat.

I disagree. It's about the strength of your system. Europeans didn't get sick from amerindians because their immune systems had been strengthened by plagues and living with animals.

Incorrect, a parasite often lives (it's a living thing and has the properties of life (look them up)) outside of a host for at least some portion of it's life cycle.

That's what I was thinking, I argued that pathogens have a narrow slice of organisms that they can actually affect, I doubt a mammal would be impacted by anything
