Write a short paper identifying the risk factors for the disease you chose for your final project. In addition, discuss its progression, modes of transmission, and its incidence and prevalence.

Write a short paper identifying the risk factors for the disease you chose for your final project. In addition, discuss its progression, modes of transmission, and its incidence and prevalence.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

Disease Progression: Describe how the disease develops in the human body. Consider how the disease starts as well as the process the disease goes through as it progresses.

Risk Factors: Explain the major risk factors for contracting or developing the disease, supporting your explanation with research.

Modes of Transmission: Discuss whether the disease is chronic or infectious and how it is transmitted from individual to individual.

Incidence: Determine the incidence of the disease in the United States, supporting your claim with data. In your research, you will investigate how often individuals contract or develop the disease.

Prevalence: Determine how prevalent the disease is in the United States, supporting your claim with data.

Your paper will have two major sections dedicated to etiology and incidence and prevalence. Within each of these two major sections, use another level of section headings to separate information into subsections as follows:

Etiology

Disease Progression

Risk Factors

Transmission

Incidence and Prevalence

Incidence

Prevalence

Requirements: 2-3 pages
