Share with your partner.An epidemic is the rapid spread of an infectious disease over a short period of time, causing a large number of deaths, the number of which differs for different diseases.Professor Jim Smith conducted a study to compare the bird flu epidemic which occurred in 1997 with other deadly epidemics in our history. He found that the earliest took place as early as 500 to 550 CE, which killed half of the population in that particular area. The same epidemic, called “The Black Death”returned in the 1330s in Asia and spread quickly to Europe. Some hundred years later, the Great Flu epidemic broke out in 1918, also known as the Spanish Flu, killing 50 million people. This was considered the most serve epidemic in human history. The 1997 bird flu which claimed over 100 lives was an adaptation of the Great Flu of 1918.At the start of 21st century there were two major epidemics: SARS and EVD. The more recently discovered SARS disease infected 8000 people. According to official records EVD has killed more than 11,310 people in West Africa alone.Globally, researchers are coming together to try to identify the causes for and help to find effective treatments for epidemics.
