The epidemiological component of your report should present health outcome data,STATICS for each community providing your analysis of why variances or similarities that exist between the two at cultural, spatial, and temporal levels.

Your analysis may include, but not be limited to,

descriptions of: patterns of incidence and prevalence over time for each community and spread of the health outcome across age groups, genders, ethnic or other relevant groups such as occupation. 

Risk Management stakeholder analysis

The risk management stakeholder analysis component should identify which agencies or groups are actively managing risks associated with your hazard and outline the type of actions being taken by each stakeholder group.

The maximum word limit = 1500 words including the introduction. Diagrams and tables are not included in the word limit. Referencing must be Harvard Style.
