持续地出现该传染病的地方, 经常受此传染病影响的地区

endemic 就是epidemic 的对比, 有关的传染病并不是由某外来因素影响而突然爆发的, 而是经常存在于某个区域的人口之中

From wikipedia:
Endemic, in a broad sense, can mean "belonging" or "native to", "characteristic of", or "prevalent in" a particular geography, race, field, area, or environment; native to an area or scope.

Endemic (epidemiology), an infection is said to be "endemic" in a human population when that infection is maintained in the population without the need for external inputs.

From online medical dictionary:
endemic
Present or usually prevalent in a population or geographical area at all times, said of a disease or agent.
