Hi,
epidemic a widespread occurrence of a disease, or occasionally of some other undesirable thing eg an epidemic of bad grammar
pandemic The prefix 'pan' refers to 'all' (from Greek). A pandemic is a big epidemic, typically involving the entire world or perhaps a whole country. Unlike 'epidemic', 'pandemic' is only used to refer to diseases.

Read this persons answer for it. someone asked like the same question as you before. But it's already resolved. I think the answer is very good.
