How Does Precision Public Health Differ from Traditional Public Health?

Traditional public health strategies often rely on broad-based interventions aimed at entire populations. In contrast, precision public health focuses on granular data and individual-level variability. This approach considers specific factors such as genetics, environment, lifestyle, and social determinants of health to develop targeted interventions. Consequently, precision public health can address the unique needs of subpopulations, leading to more effective and efficient health outcomes.
