Post-COVID-19 Review of Epidemiological Terms and Their Multidisciplinary Implications. Several dictionaries and terminological databases have updated numerous definitions of terms related to the field of epidemiology following the COVID-19 crisis, for instance, definitions of terms like "pandemic," "epidemic," and "endemic." This adaptation is the result of a modification in the conceptual framework of the studied domain. Furthermore, it was necessary to coin lexemes expressing new concepts to engage society in addressing public health crises. These terms have become commonplace in response to emergencies, especially when the entire world closely follows epidemiology-related information. In this work, we analyze the existing terminology in epidemiology. The comprehensive results have revealed that epidemiological terminology has evolved across various specialized fields such as medicine, psychology, informatics, as well as law, security, and ancient diseases. Keywords: epidemiology, terminology, concept, terminological system, post covid-19
