1. Epidemiology
Q1: What is the primary difference between incidence and prevalence?
A1: Incidence measures the number of new cases of a disease that occur in a specific period,
while prevalence measures the total number of existing cases (both new and pre-existing) at a
particular point in time. Incidence is a measure of risk, whereas prevalence is a measure of
burden.

and its risk factors?
