What Challenges Do Epidemiologists Face in Controlling Communicable Diseases?
There are several challenges, including:
Antimicrobial Resistance: Pathogens becoming resistant to treatment. Emerging and Re-emerging Diseases: New or previously controlled diseases appearing. Globalization: Increased travel and trade facilitating the rapid spread of diseases. Climate Change: Altering the habitats of disease vectors. Vaccine Hesitancy: Reluctance or refusal to vaccinate despite availability. Resource Limitations: Insufficient funding or infrastructure, particularly in low-income regions.
