The way in which the three evolutionary hypothesis are presented makes them seem mutually exclusive when, in fact, all three are at play. When you really break it down, they are all re-iterations of the same mechanisms as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.93.177.133 (talk) 03:49, 21 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

The evolution section still needs work and I am sure there are a lot more citations that could be added to this article. And there is also a mix of parasite and pathogen used in the article, which may confuse some readers. One day I will get round to a fuller edit of this article, but if anyone one else can help out in the meantime that would be great :-) Emble64 (talk) 17:03, 23 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
