Preventative care for lung cancer

 I am enrolled in a class called Cure, which is a follow up class called Disease. In this unit, we learned about preventative care. We discussed experimental probability and theoretical probability. We talked about types of preventative measures such as food, medication, behavior, and exercise. We had a guest speaker to talk to our class about genetic modifications and different types of cancer treatments. To wrap up our third and final unit, we were asked to create a fictional patient and identify a specific disorder/disease they are trying to prevent. I have chosen to help my patient prevent lung cancer. I then created a video of me talking to my patient.
