Several factors contribute to the re-emergence of infectious diseases:
Lack of Immunization: Gaps in vaccination coverage can lead to outbreaks of diseases like measles. Antimicrobial Resistance: The misuse and overuse of antibiotics have led to the rise of drug-resistant pathogens, making infections harder to treat. Socioeconomic Factors: Poverty, inadequate healthcare infrastructure, and urban overcrowding can exacerbate the spread of infectious diseases. Climate Change: Changes in climate can alter the distribution of vectors, such as mosquitoes, leading to the spread of vector-borne diseases like dengue and malaria.
