Shortage of Public Health Workers Predicted

The Association of Schools of Public Health predicts there will be a shortage of 250,000 health workers by 2010 if more people do not pursue careers in the field.

What do public health workers do? Some examples are: health policy and management, biostatitistics, epidemiology, environmental health in public and private sectors.
