新興傳染病
新興傳染病（英語：Emerging infectious disease，縮寫：EID）又称新发传染病，一般定義是近二十年以來，新出現在人類身上的傳染病，而該疾病的發生率除了有快速增加的趨勢，且在地理分布上有擴張的情況，甚至發展出新的抗藥性機制等[2] ，都可以算是新興傳染病。
新興傳染病佔了所有人類病原體的百分之十二[3]。新興傳染病可能是由新發現的微生物引起的，包括新的病毒品種或病毒毒株[4]（例如新型冠狀病毒，埃博拉病毒，HIV）。 一些新興傳染病是從已知的病原體演變而來，就像新的流感病毒株一樣。 新興傳染病也可能是由於將現有疾病傳播到不同地理區域的新人群而引起的，就像西尼羅河熱爆發那樣。
定義
廣義的新興及再浮現傳染病，其型態大致可以分成六種[4]：
