Management of Disease on a Global Level
The world has become a global economy. Travel advances have

medical tourism, and unrealistic expectation of the world’s health system.
Discuss the implications and ramifications of not managing disease from a
global perspective.
Outline the steps a country can take to play a responsible
role in the global health arena.
