Introduction: This week you were introduced to the occupation of epidemiology along with their methods. The methods used are determined by the natural history of the disease in question, funding, ethical challenges, and threat to community spread. Each disease has its own unique application of epidemiological methods and timelines. Initial Post: As you are looking at the epidemiological approach to emergent public health issues, why do you think public health might make mistakes? Think about the study designs, data collection methods, sources of data, or the disease investigation process in your response. Classmate Responses: Each discussion board you will have the requirement to respond to at least 2 classmates as specifically detailed below. Classmate Response #1: Find a student who identified a different potential source of a mistake that a public health practitioner might make. Reflect on if this could happen with your specific public health issue. Classmate Response #2: Find a student with a different public health problem and speculate how the media could assist or hinder the investigation of a new outbreak, condition, or public health issue.
