ABSTRACT
War is an understudied and yet significant contributor to disease outbreaks, necessitating approaches incorporating conflicts into disease studies. We discuss mechanisms by which war affects disease dynamics, and supply an illustrative example. Lastly, we provide relevant data sources and pathways for incorporating metrics of armed conflict into disease ecology.
