Discussion: Improving Public Health Law
Select one public health issue that is a concern in your state. Using descriptive statistics provide an overview of the public health issue. Include the target population, the impact to the population, and the financial costs. Present at least two public health laws that either support or oppose the public health issue that you have selected. Discuss how the public health law impacts health outcomes. Explain if the law should be maintained as it is, revised, or removed and how potential changes would impact the population.
Using the South University Online Library, the readings for this week, and the Internet, select a current public health issue that is of interest to you. Write a 3- to 5-page report in Microsoft Word format.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
