Epidemiology and Sociology

Social epidemiology assumes that the distribution of advantages and disadvantages in a society reflects the distribution of health and complaint. It proposes to identify societal characteristics that affect the pattern of complaint and health distribution (WCEPH-2023) in a society and to understand its mechanisms. But epidemiology isn't just defined by its statistical outlook, nor is sociology or psychology. Epidemiology deals with medical knowledge itself. also, sociology and psychology deal primarily with the subject- matter of geste ( including geste related to health and complaint) of societies and individualities. Sociology could help public health interpreters understand how individual factors interact with structural variables to place some social, ethnical, and artistic groups at lesser threat for these factors than do others.
