Also I now realize that I'm not 100% sure if I selected the correct date when submitting this. I started working to expand the article on the 18th, but didn't finish until around today. Let me know if I filled this out incorrectly

Overall: This article has about 3400 characters, but is divided into four sections of text (five counting the lede). Is it possible to amalgamate one or two? —

I have now merged the shortest section (history) into the prevalence section since it talked about prevalence over time. I could probably move the Contributing factors section in there as well, but now the prevalence section is getting a little longer. It might instead be possible to merge the disease risk and severity if I can find some more sourcing about factors the affect the severity of the disease.
