Epidemiologic research and findings often receive dramatic media coverage. Find an article in a media source (e.g., The New York Times ) on a topic related to epidemiology. In a one-page essay, summarize the findings and discuss how the article illustrates the approach of epidemiology to the study of diseases (health conditions) in populations. You may search online for an appropriate article.
