Urbanization is the process by which an increasing percentage of a population comes to live in urban areas, often resulting from migration from rural areas to cities. This movement can lead to significant changes in lifestyle, economic activities, and social structures, impacting both human health and environmental conditions. Urbanization can create densely populated areas where viral pathogens may spread more easily, contributing to viral emergence and re-emergence.
