11 Stage 1 – Pestilence and Famine (High CDR)
During stage one most deaths occur due to infectious or parasitic diseases, or from environmental factors like floods or earthquakes.

12 The BLACK PLAGUE is the deadliest of the Stage 1 epidemics; more than HALF of Europe died- IN THREE YEARS. It was spread by fleas carried by rats on ships, so port citiers were the first to fall victim.

13 Stage 2 – Receding Pandemics (High CBR, Low CDR)
Improved sanitation, nutrition, and medicine leads to a reduction in epidemics, and overall death rates plummet.

14 John Snow’s Cholera Study (1854)

15 Stage 3 – Degenerative Diseases (Low CBR & CDR)
During Stage 3, people are living longer than ever before and chronic diseases associated with age begin to be society’s greatest health challenge.

16

17 Stage 4 – Delayed Degenerative Diseases (Low CBR, Low but increasing CDR)
Deaths caused by cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and other progressive diseases delayed because of modern medical technology and treatments.

18 Because of the epidemiologic transition, health patterns are very different in the developed and developing world.
