Many experts believe that if we continue
to allow uncontrolled population growth
and continue to deplete nonrenewable natural resources, succeeding
generations will inhabit communities that
are less desirable than ours
Environment
30
Many feel that we must accept
responsibility for this stewardship and
drastically reduce the rate at which we
foul the soil, water, and air
Environment
31
The larger the community, the greater its

Differences in SES whether defined by
education, employment, or income, both
individual- and community-level
socioeconomic status have independent
effects on health
There is a strong correlation between
SES and health status—individuals in
lower SES groups, regardless of other
characteristics, have poorer health status
Socioeconomic Status
43
The more individuals who become immunized
against a specific communicable disease, the
slower the disease will spread and the fewer

Individual Behaviors
44
It is the process by which community groups
are helped to identify common problems or
change targets, mobilize resources, and
develop and implement strategies for reaching
their collective goals
Community Organization
45
If a community can organize its resources
effectively into a unified force, it is likely to

duplication of efforts and avoiding the imposition of solutions that are not congruent
with the local culture and needs

Prior to 2000 BCE - Archeological
findings provide evidence of sewage
disposal with written medical
prescriptions
Circa 1900 BCE - Perhaps earliest
written record of public health was the
Code of Hammurabi; included laws for
physicians and health practices
Circa 1500 BCE - Bible’s book of
Leviticus written; includes guidelines for
personal cleanliness and sanitation
Early Civilizations
Ancient Societies (before 500 B.C.E)
49
Evidence that Greek men participated in
games of strength and skill and swam in
public facilities
Greeks were involved in practice of
community sanitation; involved in
obtaining water from sources far away
and not just local wells
Romans were community minded;
improved on community sanitation of
Greeks; built aqueducts to transport water
from miles away, built sewer systems, created regulation for building
construction, refuse removal, and street
cleaning and repair, created hospitals as
infirmaries for slaves
Christians created hospitals as
benevolent charitable organizations
476 CE - Roman Empire fell and most
public health activities ceased
Classical Cultures (500 BCE - 500 CE)
Fifth and sixth centuries BCE
50
500 - 1500 CE (Dark Ages) - Growing
revulsion for Roman materialism and a growth
of spirituality; health problems were
considered to have both spiritual causes
and spiritual solutions, a time referred to as
the spiritual era of public health
All Failure to take into account the role of the
physical and biological environment in the
causation of communicable diseases resulted
in many unrelenting epidemics in which
millions suffered and died
543 CE and 1348 CE (Black Death) - Deadliest epidemics were from plague
that killed 25 million; half of population of
London lost and in some parts of France
only 1 in 10 survived
1200 CE - More than 19,000 leper
houses
Other epidemics of the period: Smallpox, diphtheria, measles, influenza,
tuberculosis, anthrax, and trachoma
1492 CE - Syphilis epidemic was last
epidemic of the period
Middle Ages
51
Rebirth of thinking about the nature of world
and humankind
Belief that disease was caused by
environmental, not spiritual, factors; for
example, the term malaria, meaning bad air, is
a direct reference to humid or swampy air
Observation of ill led to more accurate
descriptions of symptoms and outcomes of
diseases; observations led to first recognition
of whooping cough, typhus, scarlet fever, and
malaria as distinct and separate diseases
1662 - John Graunt published the
Observations on the Bills of Mortality, which was the beginning of vital statistics
Epidemics (smallpox, malaria, and plague) still
rampant; plague epidemic killes 68,596 (15%
of the population) in London 1665
