Epidemiology is the study of how diseases affect the health and illness of populations. It focuses on the distribution, patterns, and determinants of health-related events in specific populations, helping to understand how diseases spread and can be controlled. This understanding is essential when analyzing networks, such as those represented by random graphs, as it can reveal how quickly and widely a disease might propagate through a population.
