  • The general definition for Epidemiology

    is the study of disease ecology

  • Epidemiology is a specialized sub-discipline of

    ecology and is included under the larger umbrella definition of ecology

  • Ecology

    ecology – which is the study of how organisms interact with their environment.

  • (Autecology)

    Some traditional sub-disciplines of ecology includes studies of single species

  • (Population Ecology)

    populations of single species

  • (Community Ecology)

    assemblages of the different species

  • (Ecosystem Ecology)

    multiple communities

  • Epidemiology only includes

    The natural history of diseases,

  • Concepts that serve to unify the pattern of information needed to understand the epidemiology of vector –borne diseases.

    Discovery of what causative agent (parasite).

  • Understand the epidemiology of vector-borne diseases

    Identifying the mode of transmission among vectors and vertebrate hosts.

  • Understand the epidemiology of vector –borne diseases

    Monitoring.

  • Understand the epidemiology of vector –borne diseases

    Forecasting

  • Understand the epidemiology of vector –borne diseases.

    Control

  • Vector-borne diseases include 3 important components:

    The Arthropod Vector (Insect or Arachnid)

  • Vector-borne diseases include 3 important components:

    A Vertebrate Host

  • Vector-borne diseases include 3 important components:

    A Parasite (Protist, Virus, Bacteria, or Nematode)

  • What allows accurate prediction of the risk of arthropod-borne diseases to humans and animals?

    Vertebrate host, Arthropods vector and Parasite

  • Understanding parasite-host interactions is helpful in?

    developing therapeutic measures and diagnostic test.

  • Major components of the Arthropod-borne Disease Triad are all accept

    1.) The Arthropod Vector 2.) A Vertebrate Host 3.) A Parasite 4.) structure

  • Major components of the Arthropod-borne Disease Triad are all influenced by several critical environmental variables.

    1.) Temperature (both air and water) 2.) Precipitation Patterns 3.) Structure of Suitable Habitats: Terrestrial & Aquatic

    4.) Distribution of Suitable Habitats: Terrestrial & Aquatic

    5.) Abundance of Suitable Habitats: Terrestrial & Aquatic
