Public Health Articles
Public health issues affect this nation as a whole.
| From anthrax to West Nile Virus to the
Avian (bird) flu, there are a number of public health issues
with wide-ranging implications that need to be discussed and
for which preparations need to be made. |

With the threat of terrorism at the forefront of the public consciousness,
this nation needs to be prepared for public health emergencies such
as those that may be caused by dirty bombs or a massive release
of other biological weaponry. On these pages we will bring forth
articles that discuss just these issues.
In addition, this public health issues page will focus on some
of the more comparatively mundane subjects in public health such
as outbreaks of e. coli bacteria, but it will primarily focus on
some of the more dramatic cases or potential cases that may affect
the public at large. Mad Cow Disease and how to take care of our
emergency first responders are a couple of topics we wish to cover
along with multiple other issues.
Emergency preparedness issues will also be discussed as it relates
to public health. Hurricane Katrina brought public health and safety
during a natural disaster to the forefront in September 2005. Articles
discussing whether or not we are more prepared today that we were
then will be featured.
Some other topics that our nation is concerned with in regards
to public health include drug safety, product recalls, traveler's
health, epidemics and vaccine information.
Whether its diet & exercise or other articles you're interested
in, we've compiled some enlightening information for your review.
