Epilepsy is not "spread". It is not contagious, it is not infectious. You cannot catch it from another person. It is a physical condition. So like you cannot catch a broken arm from someone, you cannot catch epilepsy from someone. There are many causes and forms of epilepsy. It is not a single condition, but a catch-all term for anyone that has recurring seizures. There are various reasons people have seizures. About the only way a person can get it from someone else is if a condition that causes seizures is passed on genetically. So people in the same family can sometimes get seizures, but as most cases of epilepsy are not genetic, then usually one person a family having seizures will not mean that others will too.

Is there an epidemic for epilepsy?

Epilepsy is not an infection. You cannot "catch" epilepsy off someone. It is a physical conditional. If someone had a broken arm and was sitting beside you, you could not catch their broken arm off them, like you could catch a cold off them if they had one. So no, epilepsy does not spread.
