, Emerging Infectious Diseases


“….are diseases of infectious origin whose incidence in humans has
increased within the recent past or threatens to increase in the near
future.”
• Included are:

– those that appear in new geographic areas,
– those that increase abruptly,
– re-emerging diseases after a period of dormancy/ quiescence, or a
decline in incidence.

, Emergence may be due to:
- the spread of a new agent,
- the recognition of an infection present but not
detected in the population
- realization that an established disease has an
infectious origin
