Kindly use this example. Policy Brief Infectious Diseases, Tuberculosis in India From: Secretary of Health, India To: Minister of Finance, India Introduction: 400,000 Indians die each year from TB. It is the leading cause of death in the ages 15-45 and has the greatest affect on the poverty stricken regions. Several risk factors for TB are HIV, lack of knowledge, urban congestion and pollution, barriers in health care, and cultural differences. TB causes large economic losses, financial burdens to poor families, losses in education, and even familial rejection of infected women. To address TB we must promote DOT in the poorest sectors to improve knowledge and treatment, ensure efficient technology for diagnosis, and target HIV prevalent areas for proper treatment for co-infected patients. Nature and Magnitude of the Problem: India accounts for one-fifth of global TB incident cases . Roughly 1.9 million people develop TB every year and 0.87 million cases are infectious. Approximately 23,000 of those incidents are in HIV+ patients . TB represents 3.7% of India’s burden of disease, which is 11 times that of malaria . About 2 million people worldwide die of TB per year and roughly 400,000 of those deaths are in India. Affected Populations: TB is the largest single cause of adult illness and death in India out of every other communicable disease. It is the leading cause of death in the age group of 15-45 years old. Children are also affected but are not seen as the main agents in spreading TB. Adults are affected the most due to their contact with numerous people in public areas, such as work or the market place. Each year more TB cases reported of men than of women. TB primarily has the greatest impact on the pooriii and 240 million people live below the poverty line in India . TB incidence also is much higher in urban areas as compared with rural. Since TB spreads fastest in crowded areas, lower income people are at higher risk of infection due to their lifestyles and jobs. Risk Factors: Barriers in access to primary health care systems lead to numerous untreated cases of TB. The financial costs for health care as well as access to health care centers can be very difficult, especially for people from poor regions. A person with untreated TB can infect Prevalence of HIV makes people more susceptible to TB infection. Those with a co-infection of HIV and TB are at a higher risk of the TB infection becoming active. Roughly 60% of those with active TB are HIV+ . Lack of knowledge about the disease is another factor to consider. If people do not know the symptoms they will be less likely to seek help. Urban congestion, pollution, and areas with high population density are breeding grounds for TB. Small crowded areas with poor ventilation are common places where the disease can spread. The stigma attached to TB has a large affect on women in Indian society. Women with TB are stigmatized which can lead to less chance of them seeking help. Economic and Social Consequences: Economic growth of a country can be correlated with TB prevalence. TB is a long-lasting illness with a six-month duration of treatment. A study showed that those sick with TB lost roughly 3 months wages. They also spent approximately one quarter of national income per capita on care and treatment. Also, every 10% increase in TB incidence was associated with lower annual economic growth of 0.2-0.4%v. The stigma associated with TB in Indian society can cause women to be shunned by their families. Each year more than 100,000 women in India are rejected from their homes. Due to this, many women may not seek a diagnosis or treatment. Additionally, young girls at the marrying age may try to hide their disease for fear of not marrying. The stigma attributes to a number of unreported and untreated TB cases. TB affects education and growth of children. Around 300,000 children leave school every year due to TB . It is also important to consider the affect on families. If a mother dies her children are at higher risk of dying as well. Priority Action Steps: To begin addressing the high rates of TB infection we need to push for Directly Observed Therapy (DOT) in high-risk areas. DOT is very cost-effective, costing from $5-$50 per DALY gained. To ensure effective DOT there must be efficient supervision in each community. We must begin by educating the community of TB and encourage participation. The supervisors must make sure that the medicine is delivered to the patient and that the drugs are being taken accordingly by that patient. Another method of ensuring efficient treatment, which was tried in China, is providing financial incentives to doctors for enrolling patients and completing their six-month treatmentv. We also must make sure that there is access to quality-assured sputum tests and microscopy for proper diagnosis. We cannot ignore those co-infected with HIV and TB and must target HIV prevalent areas to ensure that those patients are receiving proper care. TB is rapidly causing unnecessary deaths that can be prevented from proper, enforced treatment. We must act now to begin saving lives. My topic is: Infectious diseases, Malaria in Ghana. Emphasis should be on child mortality. PLEASE use the same FORMAT. The paper is called POLICY BRIEF PLEASE kindly use so many statistics from CDC, UNICEF websites. Also, use one peer review journal, and four other resources from CDC, UNICEF and any health organization website. BUT my professor wnats intext citation, and lots of Statistics to back it up!

1) Explain the context of your primary text (what are the various issues at stake, positions people take, and relevance to our discussions?) 2) What’s your thinking so far on that text? (remember that that thinking may change as you conduct your research) 3) Discuss the kinds of research you expect to have to do in order to explore that topic more thoroughly (will you be looking exclusively at scholarly journals? Are there relevant popular resources you may use?). While your particular primary and secondary texts are up to you, everyone must select from within the following three umbrella topics: • The empowerment or disenfranchisement of particular social groups through the use of comedy, including race, class, and/or gender o Consider comics who take on race, class, gender, sexuality explicitly in their work and examine how they engage those topics and to what end. • The rhetorical value of irony o Consider comics like Stephen Colbert who employ irony as their primary method of advancing an argument – what are they able to accomplish through those ends and are there limits? • Rhetorical transgression o Consider comics who “go too far.” What can an examination of how a particular comic has gone too far help us understand our culture and society? What’s the difference between Tig Notaro and Dave Chappelle? TED LASSO
