A 2500 essay describing the epidemiology of Ebola in the Republic of the Congo with 4 sections. Minimum of 2015 or newer sources must be used. Introduction-Describe the general picture of the Republic of the Congo. For example, what is the country like both historically and currently in terms of population size, race/ethnicity, age structure, geographic size, rural versus urban, socioeconomic status, educational level, culture, religion, civil unrest/war, etc? You do not need to describe all of these factors but think about which factors are most relevant to understanding your chosen disease in that country. Disease-Address the Ebola virus disease in the following ways: 1. Describe your chosen disease or health condition overall 2. Stage of susceptibility (when someone could get the disease) 3. Stage of pre-symptomatic disease 4. Stage of clinical disease 5. Stage of recovery, disability, or death Data & Measures Used-1. Investigate what specific data and measurements are currently being kept track of in epidemiological research as it relates to your chosen disease/condition. 2. Report at least three types of epidemiological data/measures used for tracking and reporting your specific disease/condition. 3. In this portion of the project be sure to address measures such as the following (if one or more of these measures are not available for your disease then state that): a. Prevalence. This is the number of known currently existing cases of the disease divided by the number of people in the country who were at risk of getting the disease, with the time period specified. b. Incidence. This is the number of newly developed or diagnosed cases reported in your country divided by the number of people in the country who were at risk of getting the disease, over a specified period of time (risk) or the number of newly developed or diagnosed cases reported in your country divided by the total person-time (rate). c. Mortality rate. This is the number of deaths reported for your chosen country divided by the number of people who had the disease, over a specified period of time. Patterns of Disease- Research the particular factors specific the Republic of the Congo. Include the characteristics of Ebola in terms of the prevalence listed below. For this paper, the term prevalence refers to the number of existing cases of a disease or health condition. For the current prevalence, the data should be from the last 5 years. a. Overall prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate of your disease/condition b. Prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate of your disease/condition by gender. c. Prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate of your disease/condition by race/ethnicity. d. Prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate of your disease/condition by age. e. Prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate of your disease/condition by geographic location within the chosen country. f. Any other prevalence, incidence and/or mortality rate data for your disease/condition that you find interesting. Summary & ConclusionProvide an overall summation and conclusion related to how your chosen Ebola is being addressed in regards to health promotion and disease prevention as well as disease management in the Republic of the Congo. 2. Consider the impact globalization, culture, and/or the history of the Republic of the Congo had on your Ebola 3. Answer these questions: Overall, consider how the history and current state of the Republic of Congo has impacted your chosen disease. What country-specific factors have led to seeing outbreaks or large numbers of cases of your disease, for example? What country-specific factors have led to successes or difficulties in diagnosing your chosen disease? What country-specific factors have led to successes or difficulties in treating your chosen disease? What country-specific factors have led to stigma around your chosen disease (if this is a problem for your disease)?
