Why do epidemiologists care so much about insects? In this episode, we explain entomology in simple terms and show how it connects directly to epidemiology through vector-borne diseases. You’ll learn how mosquitoes, ticks, and other insects drive disease transmission, how scientists track and control vectors, and why understanding insects is essential for preventing outbreaks and protecting public health.
