Using the Web Resources provided this week*, identify a current epidemiological concern either at the local, national, or global level. Address the following questions:
What is the epidemiological concern?
What population is it affecting?
What potential population may be affected if this concern is not addressed?
What are the risk factors associated with the epidemiological concern?
What public health recommendation can you make to alleviate your identified epidemiological concern?
