With the increased mobility of human populations, diseases can quickly spread around the world. In addition, changes in vaccination practices have indicated an increase in communicable diseases that were once thought to be under control. These global health issues present new problems for community health officials. In this task, you will analyze a specific, recent outbreak of a global communicable disease that has crossed international borders (i.e. TB outbreak, Haiti to U.S.).
A. Analyze the selected communicable disease outbreak (suggested length of 2?3 pages) by doing the following:
avian influenza
measles
respiratory syndrome coronavirus
meningococcal disease
tuberculosis
