Epidemiology is the study of health and illness in the community and is considered the foundation of public health.
At KCHD, the Division of Epidemiology tracks infectious diseases, investigates disease outbreaks, educates medical providers and the general public about illness in our community, and most importantly, teaches how to prevent the spread of these diseases. |
