From health reform to H1N1 flu, the latest issues will be on the agenda at APHA’s 137th Annual Meeting in Philadelphia this month. About 10,500 public health professionals are expected to come together Nov. 7–11 for the APHA meeting, which has an overarching theme of "Water and Public Health: The 21st Century Challenge."
From preparing for H1N1 to creating an emergency kit, public health professionals drew attention to the importance of preparedness during the third annual observance of Get Ready Day in September.
With the release of new editions of two APHA-published books, "Ethics in Epidemiology and Public Health Practice" and "Case Studies in Public Health Ethics," students and public health professionals will be even better equipped to identify and solve a variety of ethics-related concerns.
APHA’s member groups will offer a full slate of activities and events at APHA’s 137th Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, Nov. 7–11.
Registration opens this month for the next round of the nation’s public health certification exam.
