	Pandemic
		The seventh pandemic began in Indonesia in 1961, called El Tor after the strain, and reached Bangladesh in 1963, India in 1964, and the USSR in 1966.
		As of 2002, however, the recent emergence of these diseases into the human population means their virulence is such that they tend to 'burn out' in geographically confined areas, or that their effect on humans is currently limited.
		AIDS can be considered a global pandemic but it is currently most extensive in southern and eastern Africa and is restricted to a small proportion of the population in other countries, and is only spreading slowly in those countries.

		A pandemic is a disease that affects people or animals over an extensive geographical area (from Greek pan+demos, all+people).
		Common killers and pandemics Note that just because a disease kills a lot of people, it doesn't make it a pandemic-a lot of diseases (for instance cancer) kill but they are a fact a number of diseases lumped together for the sake of convenience.
		Historical pandemics There have been a number of significant pandemics in human history, all of them generally zoonoses that came about with domestication of animals - such as smallpox, diphtheria, influenza and tuberculosis.

		The Justinian pandemic (542 to 767 A.D.) spread from central Africa to the Mediterranean littoral and thence to Asia Minor, causing an estimated 40 million deaths.
		The second pandemic began in central Asia, was carried to Sicily by ship from Constantinople in 1347, and swept through Europe and the British Isles in successive waves over the next four centuries.
		Before the third pandemic subsided, it resulted in an estimated 26 million plague cases and more than 12 million deaths, the vast majority in India.

	Plague \| AHealthyMe.com
		A pandemic is a disease occurring in epidemic form throughout the entire population of a country, a people, or the world.
		Although the cause of the plague was not identified until the third pandemic in 1894, scientists are virtually certain that the first two pandemics were plague because a number of the survivors wrote about their experiences and described the symptoms.
		The second pandemic occurred during the fourteenth century, and was called "Black Death" because its main symptom was the appearance of fl patches (caused by bleeding) on the skin.

		The second pandemic occurred during the Middle Ages--it is the one we call the Black Death.
		Many of the deaths during the third pandemic were concentrated in the less developed parts of the world, especially in India between 1898 and 1928.
		One reason why we need to maintain a healthy respect for the possibility of another great plague pandemic is that although the reservoirs of infection are rural, human commerce, urban living conditions, population density, and encroachment on and development of wilderness areas significantly influence the conditions that lead to the spread of plague.

	US Considers a Third H5N1 Bird Flu Pandemic Vaccine Dose
		He also said that the team was considering adding a third dose of vaccine to determine the maximum response that the vaccine could elicit.
		The consideration of a third dose strongly suggests that two doses of 90 micrograms each, generated a response that was far from ideal.
		Since this is a pandemic vaccine, requiring three shots over an extended time period is also less than ideal, especially if the vaccine has to be used under pandemic conditions.
