It can describe previously poorly understood conditions, emerging infectious diseases, and recently recognized illnesses. It also includes conditions that have recently appeared in compiled texts, novel conditions, and diseases with an unclear pathophysiology. Additionally, changes in land use can contribute to the emergence of new diseases and pandemics due to increased pathogen exchange.
