We generally hear about epidemics after any natural disasters because where up there is mass loss of life, there is the chance of contamination and the soda of disease. Also, infrastructure breaks down, leading to polluted drinking water, often with sewerage and sanitation systems not working properly.

Natural disasters can disrupt sanitation systems, damage infrastructure, and displace populations, making people more vulnerable to diseases. The lack of access to clean water, crowded living conditions in shelters, and limited healthcare services can contribute to the spread of epidemics in the aftermath of a natural disaster. Communication systems may also be affected, making it challenging to disseminate information about disease prevention and control.
