To put it very simple;
-You need a disease -spread -hosts... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_triangle or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_triangle ; The triangle illustrates the three elements a fire needs to ignite: heat, fuel, and an oxidizing agent (usually oxygen) DJ, If you know the basic ingredients you also may know basic steps to control it... In pandemics step 1 has to be knowing diseases...Testing for it is basic. Infectious diseases need "transmitters" -viruses, bacteria (etc) however diabetes, cancers also are at pandemic levels and the link to infectious diseases is less clear. "One Health" has the basic idea a health risk for animals may bring health risks for humans (or the other way round). Again-pandemics NEVER are isolated events. The basic tool has to be providing info !
