and why (incidence, prevalence, mortality, economic burden, social impact, etc.). What has been
done to mitigate or resolve the problem and why it is still a problem that needs resolution. What
would you do to resolve it and why do you think it can help?
Some more instructions:

references page. The references must include only scientific articles from peer reviewed journals
