But where does disease come from? How is it transmitted from one person to another? And why are some individuals more susceptible than others?

Assessing the management of outbreaks of diseases such as influenza, HIV/AIDS, cholera, and COVID-19, they provide specific examples to illustrate why major diseases still threaten populations all over the world.
