What Are Some Major Instances of Epidemiological Loss?
One of the most notable instances of epidemiological loss is the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, also known as the Spanish flu, which resulted in an estimated 50 million deaths worldwide. Another significant event is the HIV/AIDS epidemic that emerged in the early 1980s and has since claimed over 32 million lives. The Ebola outbreak in West Africa (2014-2016) is another tragic example, with over 11,000 deaths.
