To prepare for this Assignment, review your Learning Resources this week. Consider how certain large populations within a single political entity can still display disparate health outcomes. Think about how areas such as Kerala can have remarkably different health outcomes than the countries they are in. What makes those areas different from the rest of the country?

The Assignment (3–4 pages):

• Describe two health outcomes for which India and China have had different experiences in the last half century.
• Explain the reasons for the disparities noted.
• Describe the experience for those outcomes in Kerala and suggest reasons for why they are similar or different from the rest of India.
• Expand on your insights utilizing the Learning Resources.
