Thanks for stopping by, this is 2 minute classroom and today we are talking about how epidemiologists classify the spread or prevalence of health issues such as a disease or virus.
We’ll talk specifically about endemic, epidemic, and pandemic diseases.
What is an endemic?
An endemic health issue is a disease, virus or other health concern that is constantly present in a given location or population. The number of affected individuals is generally low and does not significantly increase or decrease over time, it’s just always there.
Examples include chickenpox, which affects children at a regular predictable rate and malaria, which is constantly present in many parts of Africa.
You might think something like the flu is an endemic virus, but in most geographies, it behaves more like our next classification, Epidemics.
What is an epidemic?
An epidemic health issue is one that has a sudden and rapid rise in a particular region or population.
The seasonal flu behaves more like an epidemic because cases spike at certain times of the year. Other epidemics throughout history include: Yellow Fever, which killed 5,000 people in Philadelphia in 1793 and Cholera, which hit the US in three waves killing over 150,000 Americans and is still very prevalent and fatal in many parts of the world.
What is a Pandemic?
An epidemic becomes a pandemic when it spreads across the globe. Essentially an epidemic that is not limited to a specific geography or population. It also usually affects a significant number of people.
Some of the most prolific pandemics throughout history include the HIV/AIDS pandemic, which has claimed the lives of more than 36 million people since 1981 and with over 30 million cases still prevalent throughout the world, the Spanish flu in 1918 which infected approximately 500 million people and had an estimated mortality rate of 10-20%, and the bubonic plague, which spread across Europe, Asia, and Africa, killing an estimated 75 -200 million people.
No for some positivity, modern medicine and hygiene have come a long way. We have many vaccines that protect us from everything from the flu to polio, we know much more about how to prepare food so that it is safe to eat and free from bacteria, and we have a much better understanding of how diseases spread so that we can react quickly to stop the progression of many potential epidemics and pandemics.
Now watch these videos that you may find interesting or check out my sources in the description to learn more about the topics discussed in this video.
Thanks for watching and I’ll catch you next time.
We were wondering about the difference in these terms. Thanks for the concise explainer!
GOD BLESS YOU, you beautiful mustached studying man.

Great video, thank you so much!!!!!!
Thank u this is perfect and simply
These videos are very interesting and helpful.
Glad you think so!
Really good video.
Around 1:30 I believe you say “essentially an epidemic” where you intend to say pandemic. I was a bit confused at first.
You are wonderful. First video and i subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
Please give more examples about this
hey dude ur awsome & ur mustache is rockin!
Thank you my friend 😊
Nicee!!
So their differences lie only on their geographical spread or there are more difference?
Essentially, how quickly and how widely they spread. And how many people they affect.
@@2MC thanks i asked that just because i was completing my assignment
Excellent 👌👌👌
Thanksss
Can you please update this to include covid-19. There is talk of it becoming an endemic I would like to know what classified the change.
Ive always thought of it as becoming an endemic eventually.
@@benjaminurista9742 it's already an endemic in my country
Lol
Very helpful
Glad you think so!
Does sickle cell anemia provide resistance to malaria???
I heard it from someone
Yes.
How you apply Your epidemiological knowledge in your daily practice in this pandemic time at your home
Just make videos I guess.
Si entendí
1817 cholera 1918 flu 2019 covid 19
2120= some other pandemic
eric oh please no
Curious. Very curious.
If on daily bases we have 40 million sick worldwide and we have 7 billion people that is 0.57% of sick people of the world population. Does anyone know a definition to the word pandemic a medical statistical definition? How much percent population needs to be sick on any given day in the world that a world pandemic can be used?
Thankyou Love from pakistan
You're welcome
