DEFINITION
Emerging infectious diseases are “New diseases; new problem (New threats)”.
An emerging infectious disease is a one that is caused by a newly discovered infectious agent or by a newly identified variant of a known pathogen, which has emerged and whose incidence in humans has increased during the last two decades and is threatening to increase in the near future.

Cont….
• Re-emerging infectious diseases are “old diseases, new problem. (New threats)”.
• A re-emerging infectious disease is a one which was previously controlled but once again has risen to be a significant health problem. This term also refers to that disease which was formerly confined to one geographic area, has now spread to other areas.

• High rate of re infections in Indian subjects (60%).
• Chlamydia pneumoniae is associated with pathogenesis
of coronary artery disease. (Jha et al 2007).

Conclusion • The true prevalence of many diseases is not
known. Since we live in a global village, we connot afford to be complacent about the tremendous economic, social and public health burden of these diseases. Effective surveillance is the key to their early containment.
• There is a need to develop epidemiology improved diagnostic facilities, a strong public health structure, effective risk communication, epidemic preparedness and rapid response.
