The relationship between the country's health and demographics will be addressed.
SLP #2: Investigate your selected country with respect to the health of its population:
1. Discuss the major health issues in your country? The country I selected is South Korea.
2. Identify which health issues disproportionately effect certain groups based on their demographics (e.g. gender, race, age, employment status, location).
