The natural history of disease is the course of the disease process from onset to resolution.The three levels of prevention provide a framework commonly used in public health practice to depict this process.The epidemiologic triangle consists of the interaction between an agent,a host,and the environment.The web of causality reflects the more complex interrelationship among the numerous factors interacting,sometimes in subtle ways,to increase (or decrease)risk of disease.The surveillance process involves the systematic collection,analysis,and interpretation of data related to the occurrence of disease and the health status of a given population.
