Choose one population of which you read (infants, children, youth, men women, elders) and identify a specific disease that is prevalent in that group and TWO ways to prevent it. You will do three –each time with a different group of people/population. Using an example that you could not use— People with Eastern and Central European Jewish communities (Ashkenazi Jews), from certain French Canadian communities in Quebec, the Old Order Amish community in Pennsylvania and from the Cajun community of Louisiana are more likely to pass on Tay Sachs disease. In order to prevent it, couples could be genetically tested to see if they have the gene for it and the plan a family accordingly. It can only be passed down if both parents have the recessive gene. Note: this disease only has one major way to be prevented, therefore, would not be a good choice for this assignment. Your answer: List the disease and population 1. List 2 ways it can be prevented. 2. 3. Fill in the chart below for TWO different types of cancer. You will do this for two different types of cancer List a type of cancer 1. 2.
