AB  - Population  health  has  long  been  a  topic  of  great  interest  to  population-based  fields  such  as  epidemiology,  social  demography,  geography,  and  public  health.  It  is  both  a  set  of  social  indicators  and  a  field  of  scientific  interest  and  professional  practice.  Historically,  for  at  least  two  centuries,  population  health  has  primarily  been  focused  on  the  distributions  and  patterns  of  health  outcomes  and  their  causes  in  populations—typically  based  on  geography  and/or  governmental  authority—and  sociodemographic  subgroups  within  populations.  The  overarching  objective  of  population  health  is  to  elucidate  how  social,  economic,  environmental,  and  ecological  factors  and  changes  within  societies  manifest—in  both  positive  and  negative  ways—in  health  outcomes  at  the  population  level.1
