1. epidemic的解釋
1. 流行：(二)流行 流行(epidemic)是指一個地區某病發病率明顯超過歷年的散發發病率水平稱為流行. 流行與散發是相對的,各地應根據不同時期、不同病種等作出判斷. 有時在實際工作中作用暴(或爆)發(性)流行一詞. 它表示在一個地區某病病例突然大量增多,
2. 流行性：一個傳染病,不論它的殺傷力如何,都會經過三個階段:零散性(sporadic)、流行性(epidemic)和地方性(endemic). 一個零散性的感染是斷斷續續、零零星星地出現,會在沒有擴散以前就消失掉,也可能進一步發展到第二階段的流行性.
n.(名詞)epidemic的基本意思是“流行病”,可用來比喻某一事件或現象像流行病一樣廣為“流傳,盛行”,常用于“an epidemic of sth”結構中。
☆ 1600年左右進入英語，直接源自法語的epidemique，意為在人們中間流行的。
