Epidemiological Transition
What types of things are killing people?
Stage 1: Pestilence and Famine
High CDR.
Diseases like the Black Plague and infectious/parasitic disease.
Killed large percentages of the population.
Spread quickly and far due to lack of knowledge about diseases.
Stage 2: Receding Pandemics
Rapidly declining CDR.
Pandemic: disease spread over a large area, affects high proportion of the population.
Improved sanitation and understanding of what causes diseases to spread.
Stage 3: Degenerative Diseases
Moderately declining CDR.
Increase in rate of death from disorders associated with aging.
Cardiovascular diseases and cancers.
Stage 4: Delayed Degenerative Diseases
Low, but increasing CDR.
Medicine delays death from degenerative diseases.
What’s going on in Stage 5
High CDR
Evolution of bacteria.
Poverty and lack of access to health care.
Globalization and increased global connections (EX: cronovirus in China and international travel)
Identify THREE reasons why death rates goes down rapidly in stage 2 of the ETM and DTM
