The earliest documentation of Infectious Diseases dates back to ancient civilizations, particularly in China and Egypt. The Ebers Papyrus, an ancient Egyptian medical text from around 1550 BCE, contains references to diseases that exhibit signs of infections. Additionally, historical records from around 3000 BCE in China also describe conditions that suggest the presence of infectious diseases. These early accounts indicate that humanity has been grappling with infectious diseases for thousands of years.
