The health status of populations is influenced by many factors. When considering poverty, answer the following questions:
a. Is poverty a cause of poor health in a community, or is poor health a cause of poverty?
b. How would different views of this question influence public health policy?
Explain your opinion using specific examples. Compare and contrast at least two types of measurements used to assess and/ or report health-related findings. Your initial post should be a minimum of 250-300 words and utilize at least two scholarly sources, cited in APA format.
