Discuss information technology~ collection, modeling, and surveillance of disease agents.

The flu epidemic, Malaria, Measles, Zika Virus, HIV, Typhoid, or other globally impacting disease. What goals/procedures would you recommend in the event of a global epidemic?

2. What roles do social inequality and absolute poverty have as determinants of health?   What roles does information technology play in global public health? (May need to give examples)
