From the definition of public health, one may understand that public health deals with the health of the populations not individuals like medicine. In brief but precisely, public health may be defined as the art and science of preventing disease, prolonging life and promoting health through organized efforts and informed choices of society or organization. Alternatively, public health may also be defined as the application of the practice of epidemiology.
