Epidemic: An outbreak of disease that attacks many peoples at about the same time and may spread through one or several communities.
Pandemic: When an epidemic spreads throughout the world
Endemic: a disease that exists permanently in a particular region or population. Malaria is a constant worry in parts of Africa.
