This site is to introduce and explain some well-known epidemics but could be fatal to human. This site provides basic information about three epidemics; Cholera, Typhoid Fever, Shigellosis, Measles, and Tuberculosis. It would provide how fatal they are, what the main causes of the outbreak are, and major symptoms.

An epidemic (from Greek epi- upon + demos people) is a classification of a disease that appears as new cases in a given human population, during a given period, at a rate that substantially exceeds what is "expected," based on recent experience (the number of new cases in the population during a specified period of time is called the "incidence rate"). Epidemic has been one of the most serious diseases that took so many lives from humans. To warn people and keep them from getting infected, this site would provide some useful information about your health.
