Difference between Epidemiology and Statistics

Epidemiology vs. Statistics

Epidemiology is the study and analysis of the distribution (who, when, and where) and determinants of health and disease conditions in defined populations. Statistics is a branch of mathematics dealing with the collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and organization of data.

Correlation does not imply causation

In statistics, many statistical tests calculate correlations between variables and when two variables are found to be correlated, it is tempting to assume that this shows that one variable causes the other.
