Summary
Pandemics are outbreaks of disease that become widespread by transmission of human-to-human infection.Throughout recent history, disease outbreaks and pandemics include Spanish flu, Hong Kong flu, SARS, H7N9, Ebola and Zika.
Main features of a pandemic include broad geographic spread, disease movement, novelty, intensity, high attack rates and explosivity, limited population immunity, infectiousness and contagiousness. Pandemics adversely have affected the health of the global population and destabilized the world's economies, social infrastructures, and both geopolitical and natural environments.
Human history has experienced major pandemics such as smallpox, cholera, plague, dengue, AIDS, influenza, extreme acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), West Nile disease and tuberculosis.Influenza pandemics are sporadic yet frequent phenomena.
Since the 1500s, influenza pandemics have occurred about three times a century, or about every 10 to 50 years.Three influenza pandemics occurred in the 20th century: 1918 influenza pandemic ("Spanish flu"), 1957-1958 pandemic ("Asian flu"), and the 1968 pandemic ("Hong Kong flu").
Each pandemic harmed human life and economic growth.For example, the 1918 influenza pandemic killed more than 20 million people worldwide.
The World Health Organization (WHO) cites that pandemic as the deadliest in world history.
