- List five reasons for an increase in numbers of emerging infectious diseasesarrow_forwardThis week you were introduced to the concept of walkability and the impact that environmental pollution can have on chronic diseases. It can be easy to observe issues within your own community, but what can be challenging is to assess and compare your community or local environment to others. In this discussion, you will select one of two tools with which to evaluate your local community on either pollution or walkability. Look at the WalkscoreLinks to an external site and enter clark county or Las vegas, then click search. Afterwards on the leftside of screenthere is a list of scores: Walk, Transit and bike score and then below the walkscore is a brief description about this location. Walkability and bike-ability in a community has been tied to lower levels of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. A transition to more mixed use city planning, which would increase population density and reduce reliance on single occupancy vehicles has been one part of…arrow_forwardwhat is the difference in lifespan of an endemic and a pandemicarrow_forward
