Abstract
Infectious diseases have circulated the globe since the dawn of time, and new ones are seen often. Emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) are defined as a newly found or an already known infectious disease that is rapidly increasing in incidence. COVID-19 changed the theoretic risk of this to a reality. Frontline providers, particularly nurses, were at the forefront of caring for those with COVID-19. This article discusses the history of EID, how care is and should be provided to patients with infectious disease, and future work that needs to be done.
