Public Health and Epidemiology
Medieval Italians believed that living near stagnant water increased the risk of illness. The popular opinion blamed it all on the foul air around swamps and gutters. That’s where we got the word malaria, a derivation of mala aria, Latin for bad air.
Though these ideas were not entirely off the mark, our knowledge of how diseases spread has improved.
Through Public Health and epidemiology, policymakers, health providers, and communities work together to prevent infections and quell outbreaks.
