Read the module Home page and required readings. Read through this assignment, including the instructions, and the Assignment Expectations.<\/em><\/p>\n

Please write an essay in which you first clearly identify a single major achievement in Epidemiology (e.g., Smallpox, HIV\/AIDS, Tobacco Use, Cholera). Then briefly describe one important tool that is used to measure its occurrence in a population. Briefly identify one source of public health data on that issue. Finally, incorporating the concepts of risk and rates, briefly discuss at least one major factor that influenced its occurrence.<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You can submit your paper in Question and Answer format. In other words, list the questions and provide a short answer to each.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Which single achievement in Epidemiology is of particular interest to you? (Some examples include Smallpox, HIV\/AIDS, Tobacco Use, and Cholera). Please write 2\u20133 sentences maximum.<\/li>\n
  2. Briefly describe that achievement in Epidemiology (1\u20132 paragraphs). In what era did this achievement occur? Be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.<\/li>\n
  3. Briefly describe one important tool that can be used to measure its occurrence in a population. Examples of Tools include surveys, surveillance, and biological monitoring. Please write 2\u20133 paragraphs about this, and be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.<\/li>\n
  4. Please identify one specific source of public health data on that issue and write one paragraph about it. Provide a description of the source and a link (i.e., hyperlink or URL) directly to the data source.<\/li>\n
  5. Incorporating what you learned in this module about risk and rates, what would you say was one major factor<\/em> that influenced the achievement of this occurrence? Please write 2\u20133 paragraphs and be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
