In a sense, epidemiology is a methodology for studying the phenomenon of disease groups. The tasks of epidemics include the etiological investigation, the examination of prevention measures, and so on, all of which are not in analyzing the causal connection between variables and events, and arguing that the demonstration depends on epidemiological methods. On the contrary, Can not do without epidemiological methods. As early as the twentieth century, there are many classic examples of epidemiological applications that elucidate the etiology of the disease, such as Pott and scrotum, Snow J and cholera, Lind J and scurvy, Goldberger and Kelp. The late 50s of this century, shock the world’s “reaction stop event” (Thalidomide caused neonatal limb deformities) is the application of epidemiology
