12 Infectious Disease Burden Across Latitude Burden of Infectious Diseases Public Health as Economic Development GEOGRAPHY MATTERS

13 1.Income determines health - Nutrition - Sanitation and Waste Management - Access to Clean Water - Prevention, such as mosquito nets 2. Health determines income - Labor Productivity - School Attendance Rates - Longevity, Savings, and Investments - Fertility, household size Theory of a Disease-Driven Poverty Trap Public Health as Economic Development From Economics Literature (Sachs, 2001, 2005, Bloom and Canning, 2005):

30 Poverty Trap Economic Growth Theory of a Disease-Driven Poverty Trap Public Health as Economic Development

31 Theory of a Disease-Driven Poverty Trap Public Health as Economic Development Accordingly we can estimate the following linear equations for rich and poor countries: Disease Burden = f(Income, Temp, Rain, Disease Burden of Neighbors) Income = f(Disease Burden, Temp, Rain, Nat Res, Landlocked, ELF) Estimates for Rich Countries Estimates for Poor Countries Impact of Disease on Income -.43***-.51*** Income of Income on Disease -.91*-.57**

32 Public Health as Economic Development Theory of a Disease-Driven Poverty Trap

33 Public Health as Economic Development Summary The infectious disease burden is determined simultaneously by ecological and socioeconoimic processes Nonlinear feedbacks between income and disease have the potential to form poverty traps where initial epidemiological and economic conditions can have impacts on long-term health and development of the society
