The COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 is a serious public health event in human history. It is a viral pneumonia caused by the novel coronavirus, with strong transmission and high concealment, and has caused a global pandemic. At present, the situation of control of COVID-19 tends to be stable. We can finally relax from the intense battle, reflect on the disaster, summarize experience and look forward to the future. COVID-19 has not only brought tens of thousands of deaths, but also promoted the progress and development of human science and technology. Countries have learned valuable management experience from COVID-19, which is beneficial to human development and progress. But we must not take it lightly. We must learn to apply knowledge to prevent the occurrence of the next pandemic. No one knows whether mankind can withstand the next disaster. This paper summarizes the experience and lessons learned from COVID-19, and predicts the occurrence of the next pandemic disease due to glacier melting, aiming to warn people to pay attention to glacier microorganisms and protect the environment.
