Risky business this public health

Being in public health, we know a thing or two about risk. Whether it is about individual behaviours, exposure to environmental hazards or contact with bacteria or viruses that are dealt with by healthcare services, we understand how certain things pose a risk to our health. At least as important, as population practitioners, we have an insight into what actions may militate the harm which such risks pose. Understanding the risk and how it can be more effectively managed is a theme which runs through this November issue of Public Health.
