Public Health stuff
Understanding some of the public health lingo, and sometimes the choice of examples and arguments can be challenging.
If you're like me you were taught growing up that health is your individual problem. Public health talks about external factors that impact health of the population as a whole. Often its hard to figure out the difference between the apples and oranges so to speak.
Maybe the Population Health Forum has good stuff. I'll check it out but also feel free to see yourself.
