Medicine and Health

Read the CDC document entitled Public Health Preparedness: Mobilizing State to State. There are nine recommendations in the background section. Choose one of the 5 public health disasters listed below and write a 3000-word paper (plus or minus 10%) that briefly describes the incident and then how and why aspects of the incident were handled well or could have been handled better according to this document. Each of the nine main points of the CDC document must be addressed in your paper. If a particular one does not apply, state why (with a detailed enough explanation to support your opinion) and move on. I expect that you will be able to discuss or cite relevant topics we cover in the course as evidence that you have read the material and are facile enough to write about the importance of this subject matter even if you are not an expert. Do not include irrelevant extraneous material. The paper should utilize APA format. If you have ANY questions about the paper, please contact the faculty member AS SOON AS POSSIBLE to avoid wasting time doing the assignment incorrectly. Topics: 1. H1N1 outbreak US 2009-2010 2.
