vital statistics - ANSWER✅✅ -statistics on live births, deaths, fetal deaths,
marriages and divorces.
cases - ANSWER✅✅ -set of criteria used in making a decision as to whether an

Social Justice - ANSWER✅✅ -the view that everyone deserves equal rights and

triad consists of an external agent, a host and an environment in which host and
agent are brought together, causing the disease to occur in the host.
