Economic Issues and Policy 5th Edition by Jacqueline Murray Brux

Exercise 12

Check out the Web site of the World Health Organization (WHO) at http://www.who.int and find and read about a global health issue that interests you. Note that health problems facing the poor in the developing countries of the world are often quite different from those facing people in the United States. Examples include malaria and other tropical diseases, as well as far greater incidence of HIS/AIDS (especially in Africa). You can also find country-specific health information on this site.
