Health and Illness Questions
I’m working on a sociology discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Use the following sites to answer the enclosed prompt:

The National Library of Medicine site has information about health topics: https://medlineplus.gov/.

Hint: Search ‘health coverage’ and/or ‘health conditions’
Use general search engines using ‘health coverage’ and ‘health conditions and the countries you are investigating.
i.) Many nations have national health coverage. Search the Internet for programs in at least two industrialized nations.
Compare the information about coverage and health conditions in those nations with the United States.
- What facts could you use to support or reject a national health program in the country?
Use the textbook as a guide–this will prevent you from getting overwhelmed while reviewing the work.
