Andrew Brown is a British-born journalist who spent most of his career in Hong Kong.
 He is best known for producing technology-related features for CNN, which he joined in 2000.
 He reported on humorous stories, like on machines which allegedly track women's hormonal cycles, translate animal sounds or control dreams.
 He has also reported on more serious topics like computer passwords and Sars.
As at 18 December 2009, Australia had 37,537 confirmed cases of H1N1 Influenza 2009 (Human Swine Influenza) and 191 deaths reported by Department of Health but only 77 deaths reported by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
 The actual numbers are much larger, as only serious cases are being tested and treated.
 Suspected cases have not been reported by the Department of Health and Ageing since 18 May 2009 because they are changing too quickly to report.
 As many as 1600 Australians may have died as a result of this virus.
 On 23 May The federal government classified the outbreak as CONTAIN phase except in Victoria where it was escalated to the SUSTAIN phase on 3 June.
 This gives government authorities permission to close schools to slow the spread of the disease.
 On 17 June 2009 the Department of Health and Ageing introduced a new phase called PROTECT.
 This modified the response to focus on people with high risk of complications from the disease.
 Testing at airports is to be discontinued.
 The national stockpile of antiviral drugs will no longer be made available to people with the flu unless there are more than mild symptoms or a high risk of dying.
The 1993 Milwaukee Cryptosporidiosis outbreak was a significant distribution of the "Cryptosporidium" protozoan in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and the largest waterborne disease outbreak in documented United States history.
 The Howard Avenue Water Purification Plant (see Town of Lake water tower) was contaminated, and treated water showed turbidity levels well above normal.
 It was one of two water treatment plants for Milwaukee.
 The root cause of epidemic was never officially identified; initially it was suspected to be caused by the cattle genotype due to runoff from pastures.
 It was also thought that melting ice and snowmelt carrying "Cryptosporidium" may have entered the water treatment plants through Lake Michigan.
 MacKenzie et al. and the CDC showed that this outbreak was caused by "Cryptosporidium" oocysts that passed through the filtration system of one of the city's water-treatment plants, arising from a sewage treatment plant's outlet 2 miles upstream in Lake Michigan.
The West African Ebola virus epidemic (2013–2016) was the most widespread outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in history—causing major loss of life and socioeconomic disruption in the region, mainly in the countries of Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone.
 The first cases were recorded in Guinea in December 2013; later, the disease spread to neighboring Liberia and Sierra Leone, with minor outbreaks occurring elsewhere.
 It caused significant mortality, with the case fatality rate reported at slightly above 70%, while the rate among hospitalized patients was 57–59%.
 Small outbreaks occurred in Nigeria and Mali, and isolated cases were recorded in Senegal, the United Kingdom and Sardinia.
 In addition, imported cases led to secondary infection of medical workers in the United States and Spain but did not spread further.
 The number of cases peaked in October 2014 and then began to decline gradually, following the commitment of substantial international resources.

Citrus greening disease (; or HLB), is a disease of citrus caused by a vector-transmitted pathogen.
 The causative agents are motile bacteria, "Candidatus" Liberibacter spp.
 The disease is vectored and transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid, "Diaphorina citri", and the African citrus psyllid, "Trioza erytreae", also known as the two-spotted citrus psyllid.
 It has also been shown to be graft-transmissible.
 Three different types of HLB are currently known: The heat-tolerant Asian form, and the heat-sensitive African and American forms.
 The disease was first described in 1929 and first reported in China in 1943.
 The African variation was first reported in 1947 in South Africa, where it is still widespread.
 Eventually, it affected the United states, reaching Florida in 2005.
 Within three years, it had spread to the majority of citrus farms.
 The rapid increase in this disease has threatened the citrus industry not only in Florida, but the entire US.
 As of 2009, 33 countries have reported HLB infection in their citrus crop.
The 2002 Barrow-in-Furness Legionnaires' disease outbreak was a fatal outbreak of Legionellosis which occurred in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, England.
 It was and still remains among the worst such outbreaks in history.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a viral respiratory disease of zoonotic origin caused by the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
 Between November 2002 and July 2003, an outbreak of SARS in southern China caused an eventual 8,098 cases, resulting in 774 deaths reported in 37 countries, with the majority of cases in Hong Kong (9.6% fatality rate) according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
 No cases of SARS have been reported worldwide since 2004.
H7N9 is a bird flu strain of the species Influenza virus A (avian influenza virus or bird flu virus).
 Avian influenza A H7 viruses normally circulate amongst avian populations with some variants known to occasionally infect humans.
 An H7N9 virus was first reported to have infected humans in March 2013, in China.
 Cases continued to be reported throughout April and then dropped to only a few cases during the summer months.
 At the closing of the year, 144 cases had been reported of which 46 had died.
 It is known that influenza tends to strike during the winter months, and the second wave, which began in October, was fanned by a surge in poultry production timed for Chinese New Year feasts that began at the end of January.
 January 2014 brought a spike in reports of illness with 96 confirmed reports of disease and 19 deaths.
 As of April 11, 2014, the outbreak's overall total was 419, including 7 in Hong Kong, and the unofficial number of deaths was 127.
Between 1 and 3 April 2013, the northeastern section of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, experienced several flash floods that claimed the lives of 101 people.
 Greater La Plata was hardest hit with 91 reported deaths, and Greater Buenos Aires reported 10 deaths.
 The flooding was the result of extremely heavy rainfall and is said to be the worst flooding in La Plata's history.
Zika fever, also known as Zika virus disease or simply Zika, is an infectious disease caused by the Zika virus.
 Most cases have no symptoms, but when present they are usually mild and can resemble dengue fever.
 Symptoms may include fever, red eyes, joint pain, headache, and a maculopapular rash.
 Symptoms generally last less than seven days.
 It has not caused any reported deaths during the initial infection.
 Mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy can cause microcephaly and other brain malformations in some babies.
 Infections in adults have been linked to Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS).
