This article explores the SuperDemic, highlighting its impact on community health and reframing the epidemic and pandemic concepts in infectious disease preparedness.

By exploring TB and COVID-19 through this lens, an argument for a reframing of epidemiological thinking that goes beyond the classical epidemic–pandemic binary and calls for a multidisciplinary, community-centered approach to global health preparedness is being attempted.
