Obviously we are still on public health issues because this is a public health class so in chapter 5 it is determined the as the rise of lifestyle. So during World War I the focus of public health shifted onto mothers and their babies. There were also changing patterns of disease known as the epidemiological transition brought on by World War II. However going back to World War I, infant mortality decreased and continued to fall during the war, however because of the shift in diseases there was an increased mortality from tuberculosis and STD's. In order to fix this the idea arose of education. However, it was controversial back then and still today, does teaching safe sex promote the risky behavior? After the war alcohol was in the decline with many places across the world attempting a prohibition, however none of them lasted very long. While the epidemic disease had departed, the influenza pandemic began and people were dying all over the place. Public health eventually gained control of clean water, sewage, regulation of streets and much more. This decreased sickness and helped make the United Kingdom a cleaner place. McGonigle researched and found that poor families had a death rate twice as much as families with money implanting the unemployment benefit to enable families to secure the minimal nutritional requirements, also known today as welfare. This happened in attempt to bring down the amount of death for poor families. Mortality from infection declined, but smoking became in issue. A lot of the focus to prevent smoking was on women because it impacted the health of both the mother and the fetus inside of her while when men smoked they only hurt themselves, unless you take into consideration second hand smoking, which is still toxic and very dangerous. People began researching different medical divisions nonstop and public health was split up into many subsections. This caused dilemmas with items that could fit into more than one category. This made the categories re-emerge back into public health, still with some issues, but not nearly the same amount. Onto Chapter 6. Sanitation in the European Empire grew and so did the health, except smallpox. This was first tested in India, but Europe proved the monetary value of it. Europe eventually drifted away from India. Tropical medicine was also studied. The environment was different and so was the rate of which certain diseases can live. Quarantine was used, but not always effective. Paris held a health meeting with the locals and eventually made public health organizations to increase the health and well being of its inhabitants. Along with many international health organizations. A lot of the health movement came from the wars The US and Europe collaborated on health issues, however ideas that were in kind of a grey area, such as STD's were not throughly discussed. International health was very large especially after World War II. Some widely known organizations are WHO (World Health Organization) and UNICEF  (the UN children's organization).WHO was behind the eradication of Malaria.This was found to be useful through the use of DDT, which was originally designed for typhus. With the war over the money that went to the war was now put into health budgets. Medical technology will always be changing and has always changed. The things that we have now were unimaginable back in the day.
