Based on the movie you choose there are specific questions to be answered.
In this discussion board assignment, you will choose one of the listed public health movies to watch (And the Band Played On, Contagion, or Miss Evers Boys), and you will answer the questions assigned to the movie you chose. You will have to rent the movie to watch since I do not have any links to a free version for any of the movies listed. I think you may find the movie, “Miss Evers Boys” on Youtube.
