Discussion Post: Quantifying the Extent of Disease
Topic: Meningitis
Incidence is the likelihood of developing a disease among participants at risk of developing the disease. Prevalence refers to the proportion of participants with a risk factor or disease at a particular point in time. For the designated disease, you must research as well as compare and contrast the prevalence and incidence of the designated disease in the United States and one other country. You must also examine the global efforts to combat the spread of the disease. Examine recent research related to that disease and focus on how the data was collected and analyzed, and evaluate cultural considerations related to the issue.
