How Do Epidemiologists Measure Health and Well-Being?
Epidemiologists use a variety of metrics to assess health and well-being. Some of the most commonly used measures include morbidity (the rate of disease in a population), mortality (the rate of death), and life expectancy. Additionally, they may look at quality of life indicators, such as physical and mental health status, access to healthcare, and social determinants of health like education and income levels.
