to protect against the outbreak Nothing but more aggressive is a trigger for faster action.

​What goes into the decision?

When there are enough hybrids to declare an epidemic on enough documents, these are a black and white decision. But generally, the WHO looks for continuing community outbreaks on different continents.

In other words, people who were in the place where the virus was roaming risked the chain of transmission if they became ill.is obvious. And as long as health authorities can trace those chains, an epidemic isn’t yet deemed out of control.

Now people start getting infected without obvious links, so these signs spread the infection widely in a population. Important for declaring an epidemic.

For flu, the WHO typically calls an epidemic when a replacement virus is spreading in two regions of the world; COVID-19 is now spreading in parts of 4.

​What was the last global pandemic(Due to corona)?

The last disease the WHO declared an epidemic was a replacement flu strain, initially called ‘swine flu’ in 2009 This decision came when the new H1N1 flu spread in many countries for 6 weeks. Today,  we know this stem worldwide as endemic. They become part of the regular flu outbreak of all seasons.

This word has neither been understood nor is it placed in a drawer. And only used at the worst of times, then people are fearing it.

​What does this mean about the disease’s severity?

Epidemics are a scary word but it does not mean how serious the diseases are. It means that a disease is spreading widely. There may be an epidemic of mild illness such as the H1N1 flu in 2009.

The regular seasonal flu has a mortality rate of 0.1%. In fact, how deadly will this new coronavirus be? clear is not and may be different from earlier cases in countries with particular influx

But corona does seem less deadly than its cousins SARS, severe acute respiratory syndrome, and MERS, Middle East respiratory syndrome, albeit it’s spreading more easily than those earlier outbreaks.
