The article says nothing about how pandemics end. In fact, it doesn't even mention that they do. There is also no information here or anywhere else on WP on this topic or even on changes in virulence, not even in that article.
Even more absurd is that even that article doesn't even mention transmission-virulence trade-off or the researchers Roy M. Anderson and Robert May.
Even more absurd is that the latter article doesn't even mention the former and neither article mentions that these researchers disproved the so-called law of declining virulence. In fact only that redirected link leads to an article that has sources on research that disproved that "law", though even that article failed to mention until yesterday that it has been disproved... -- Espoo ( talk) 08:08, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

The article Polio now describes the 1950s Polio epidemic as a pandemic:
Small localized paralytic polio epidemics began to appear in Europe and the United States around 1900.[155] Outbreaks reached pandemic proportions in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand during the first half of the 20th century.
Does this qualify polio as a notable outbreak for the pandemic article? Robert P. O'Shea ( talk) 14:25, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
Moved images according to it. -- Medupdate3 ( talk) 09:53, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
I think it would be great to add transcription of the word so non-english speakers can pronounce it better 195.91.12.142 ( talk) 15:08, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
There are a few things are needed to give this article better focus and value.
I'm planning to work my way through them, but any help will be appreciated. Bob ( talk) 14:11, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
