Overview
- Choose an infectious disease from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s “watch list” here. You will refer to this chosen infectious disease in future assignments for this course.
- Do your own research to find out which populations of the world are most affected by this health issue and what is being done to solve the problem. Write a 2- to 3-page review of your findings.
- Think about how this global health issue is being handled in the population to which you belong (e.g., your racial/ethnic group, city/state/country you live in, a city/state/country you have ties with or would like to visit, etc.) and write another page about that.
Be sure to use credible, professional, and scholarly sources such as peer-reviewed journal articles from the Trident Online Library, and government, university, or nonprofit organizations’ websites.
Length: 3–4 pages (excluding the cover page and reference list), double-spaced.
