A public health specialist focuses on improving and developing conditions where people can be healthy in the community in which they live. They research diseases and illnesses, detect and prevent infectious diseases, and work to find ways to decrease health disparities and promote healthier lifestyles.

Public health workers track disease outbreaks and shed light on why some individuals are more likely to suffer from poor health than others.
