Go on an interactive adventure as an EPA inspector, who is trying to investigate a chemical spill. CDC's Global Health Odyssey - an introduction as to how the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention protect our health. I think public health is a joining together of people who all share one common goal which is improving and maintaining a very healthy as well as happy population. Public health is a way for everyone in a community to work together. Public health makes it possible for the public to be healthy.
Public health helps to prevent outbreaks of epidemics and the spread of disease.
Public health also involves protecting the environment, promoting health behaviors and preventing unintentional injuries. I have learned that public health deals with a variety of things and some of them are farmers and pesticides, children and car seats and recycled water. Public health needs to make sure our water is safe to drink. Too many people get diseases from contaminated water. They do this by giving us shots before we can catch infectious diseases.
