Dear students,

Some suggestions for term paper part 2:

Global impacts of the disease

· any change in government policy and healthcare system

· public awareness (e.g. World AIDS day, World TB day)

· social issues arisen from the disease (e.g. unemployment, economy shock, psychological problem

What are the causes/driving forces of this disease (e.g. global warming, antibiotic misuse, change in lifestyle, etc)

Public health emergency preparedness and allocation/distribution of resources during outbreak

New drug development (vaccine research, clinical trials, more NIH funding?)

Any response from WHO, CDC and NIH (or other global organization)

Your perspective/understanding about the social impact of the disease
