Endemic diseases are often confused with epidemics. However, an epidemic refers to an outbreak of a disease. An epidemic occurs when a disease is spreading through one or more populations.

Under certain circumstances, an epidemic can lead to a disease becoming endemic. Endemic diseases are not always present at high levels.
