With the rise of global warming, risks of such epidemics increases … thankfully today, we have antibiotics and vaccines against plague. So, let’s try real hard not to decay back into stone age.

I wouldn’t be too reliant on antimicrobials.

Yes, this is a real concern …
… but allow me to express it in a funny way : some microbes are trying real hard to find a cure against penicillin.
When on the gallows, humour may be all you have left 😄
That is not untrue.

I would argue that the higher risk for this is the constant travel between countries.
A plague that may have affected a specific area in the past will now hit all humanity in a couple of months, as seen with covid.
Also constant travel is one of the big contributors to global warming.
