English term

the population

English to Japanese Medical Zoology 免疫学
What does "the population" refer to?

A further consideration is that vaccination weakens the strength of a population by allowing individuals to survive that otherwise would succumb to natural diseases; these diseases provide cleansing and strengthening for the population under normal conditions.
The population is further weakened by immunosuppressive and possibly gene-damaging vaccine impacts.


The text explains about Vaccination for cats and dogs.

The population is a group of organism (living matter) and not including cells or tissues of organism. Because these cells or tissues cannot survive when they are separated from its organism.
Note from asker:
Thank you very much for your help. I am not sure what the population indicate "cats(or dogs)" , "cells or tissues of a cat(or dog)", or others in this text. Reading the second reference, ”個体群” may indicate all of them. Which of them is proper to imagine when we read the text?
Peer comment(s):

agree Nathan Takase : I think cinefil's answer is also valid, but this one seems more appropriate for this context.

Thanks so much!
agree chris_k : I might've simply used 集団, but I think Mr Oikawa's more accurate. On the side, a bit disturbed by what it says..

Thanks so much!
agree Mami Yamaguchi : 動物の中には集団で(群れを成して)生息するものばかりではないので、「個体群」が適切だと思います。
