These include changing modes of subsistence, shifting populations, environmental disruptions, and social inequalities. The recent labeling of the term ""re-emerging infections"" reflects a re-emergence, not so much of the diseases themselves, but rather a re-emerging awareness in affluent societies of long-standing problems that were previously ignored
