Some new untreatable disease is still possible (e.g., an AIDS virus that can live for 7 days while flying through the air) but I see it as a lot less likely than it used to be.
True but we are trapping ourselves in the mindset that this end time event would take the form of a singular event and most likely it will be a series of events. Hygiene is a lot harder to maintain in the absence of potable and running water and a collapsed civilization. Viral/bacterial pandemics would be a lethal follow up catastrophe.
