Provide a clearly articulated rationale for why you believe this disease is the one that is most likely to be eradicated.

One of the topics covered in this module is the conditions that make eradication of a disease feasible. Your text considered smallpox, polio and measles on page 157, and HIV/AIDS on p. 158. For this assignment you will recreate the table on page 157 using the following diseases 1) Zika Virus, 2) Lyme Disease, and 3) Influenza OR Pertussis (Whooping Cough).

In each cell, in addition to saying yes/no, supplement your response with a clear explanation/rationale for why you have said yes/no. You can do this within the cell if there is enough room, or in a footnote. Your footnote can contain both your explanation and your reference.

After creating the table, write one paragraph that discusses which disease you think is more likely to be eradicated. Provide a clearly articulated rationale for why you believe this disease is the one that is most likely to be eradicated. You will be graded on the quality of your responses and your ability to defend the position you take and support it with evidence from the literature.

You must include references for each disease. APA format requires you to use (Author, date) for in-text citations, but for this assignment, please use footnotes for your in-text citations as it will be easier to use footnotes within the cells of your tables. However, please use APA format for your final reference list.
