Basically, there are five different stages of infectious disease which include the incubation stage, the prodormal stage, the illness stage, the decline stage and the convalescence. Firstly, the incubation period is a period where there are no signs and symptoms detected while the virus is incubating.
Emerging infectious disease. An emerging infectious disease (EID) is an infectious disease whose incidence has increased in the past 20 years and could increase in the near future. Emerging infections account for at least 12% of all human pathogens. EIDs are caused by newly identified species or strains (e.g. Severe acute respiratory syndrome, HIV/AIDS) that may have evolved from a known infection (e.g. influenza) or spread to a new population (e.g. West Nile fever) or to an area undergoing ecologic transformation (e.g. Lyme disease), or be reemerging infections, like drug resistant tuberculosis.
