A New Field of Medical Interest


As I was strolling along merrily throughout the blog-o-sphere and the interwebs, I was blessed to find an interesting article on health in urban areas. This took particular interest to me, since I never really considered there being a different branch of medicine for different populations (e.g. urban vs. rural).

The article in interest was called Urban Health: A New Discipline and basically reviewed the unhealthy side of living in an urban area (despite an abundance of hospitals), like respiratory problems or HIV (and no, it did not say that living in an urban area entitled you to acquire HIV).

Check out the article here!
