Netizens said that after the gale, the epidemic will be prevented. Will there really be an epidemic after the typhoon?

I think the first thing to correct is that it is not a big epidemic after the gale, but it is often said that there is a big epidemic after the disaster, but the epidemic of the disease is not necessarily due to the combination of local health conditions and environment.

The reason why there must be a great epidemic after the great disaster is mainly because the local natural conditions will change to a certain extent after the great disaster, so it is very likely to cause the spread of pathogenic bacteria, fungi and microorganisms, and it is very likely to cause the spread of the epidemic.

For example, many animal shelters may be washed away after a major disaster like flood. For example, mice live underground. In such an environment, they naturally run to the ground out of survival instinct, but they may carry a lot of bacteria. Once spread, it is likely to cause an epidemic.

Or for example, after the typhoon, there may be a lot of water on the road, so some plants can't see the sun and can't breathe aerobically, so some toxic and harmful substances produced by anaerobic breathing are harmful to human body. In this case, if someone is accidentally injured by these harmful substances and then spreads them to others, it is likely to cause an epidemic.

Of course, there are other reasons. In a word, after such a catastrophe, we must guard against these things. But not necessarily, because the medical conditions, sanitary conditions and disease knowledge are relatively sound now, and people know something about these things, so if you add sanitary preventive measures and local management, as long as you take more precautions, you will still be fine.
