Choose a disease from the reportable disease list and submit a 2- to 3-page paper in which you answer the following questions:
What public health and education measures have been taken during recent outbreaks to monitor and track the disease you chose in the community?
What else is being done about this disease from a public health standpoint? Address the actions taken by community agencies, not-for-profit organizations, and government agencies such as the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotions.
