Paper Focus: Find a topic of interest to you in public health and develop your paper around a question you have regarding this topic.

Your paper may question whether sex education is more effective, at combating teenage pregnancy, over abstinence only education.

Describe the course of the disease or condition using the concepts of incidence, prevalence and case-fatality. If these concepts are not relevant to your subject explain what they mean and why they are not relevant. Identify at least one at-risk group (those with an increased probability of developing and/or experiencing bad outcomes). Use the concept of relative risk to describe their probability of developing the condition or specific disease(s) relative to a specific low risk group.
Identify a potential intervention to address the problem. Identify the primary focus in terms of When (Primary, secondary or tertiary prevention), Who (individual, at-risk group, population) and How (education, motivation, obligation, invention).
Critically analyze the topic and intervention. Indicate the advantages and disadvantages of each intervention that you selected and why they would be effective. Indicate methods that you would use to implement the intervention.
