Put the two together, I reckon it will be a massive health problem right across the world and most likely claim more lives than bird flu on it's own.

Unfortunately there were several people injured, one critical and the police arrived and eventually shot the man wielding a knife and he also had a fake explosives vest.

Streatham terrorist was named as Sudesh Amman and was known to authorities and IS claimed responsibility for the attack. I think we could see more of these 'lone wolf' incidents in future, but would not surprise me if something on a larger scale happened this year. In the meantime, it is finding the sleeper cells quickly that may be key to preventing further incidents.
