Insect Vector and Virus Epidemiology

Insect vector biology is deals with an insect that transmits pathogens, as well as its interactions with hosts and disease-causing organisms.

The study of viruses and their hosts is known as viral epidemiology. Viral disease transmission is an essential feature of viral epidemiology. Viral transmission modes include direct contact and contact with infectious fomites, contaminated food or drink, and insects.

Entomologists and epidemiologists try to predict the potential for development of an epidemic or pandemic, as well as to find effective measures to contain vector and virus outbreaks. They must try to account for a wide range of insect, host, and virus-related parameters, such as mode of transmission, length of infection, window of transmissibility, population density, living conditions, environment, and stability.
