About this Dataset

Timeline Of Historical Pandemics

A Comprehensive History of Major Disease Outbreaks

Tracing the Past to Prevent the Future

About this dataset

This dataset provides a comprehensive record of major disease outbreaks throughout history. It includes information on the disease, the death toll, the date and location of the outbreak, and the global and regional population lost.

Disease outbreaks are a major public health issue that can have devastating consequences. This dataset can help us better understand how these diseases spread and how to prevent them in the future. By studying this data, we can learn from past mistakes and take steps to avoid repeating them

How to use the dataset

To use this dataset, simply download it as a CSV file and import it into your favourite data analysis software. From there, you can begin to explore the data and understand more about how these diseases have affected people throughout history

Research Ideas

This dataset can be used to study the history of major disease outbreaks and the effects they have had on global and regional populations.
This dataset can be used to predict future disease outbreaks by identifying patterns and trends in past outbreaks.
This dataset can be used to develop better strategies for responding to and preventing future disease outbreaks
