Abstract

Manasvi Vukku*

In our increasingly interconnected world, the movement of pathogens has become a significant concern. The globalization of trade, travel and information exchange has facilitated the rapid spread of infectious diseases, posing serious threats to public health. This article explores the dynamics of pathogen movement and the methods used to track and mitigate their spread. From historical pandemics to modern outbreaks, we delve into the factors that drive pathogen mobility and the technologies that enable us to monitor and respond to these threats effectively. By understanding the intricate web of disease transmission, we can better prepare for and combat emerging infectious diseases in our globalized society.
