Has anyone done a study on preventative health care or not in Micronesian people groups?

21 July 2020 0 6K Report

I'm interested in prevantative vs. reactive health care practices of Marshallese people in Hawaii. In regards to the UH study of 2015 about "Younger and Sicker, Micronesian vs. other ethnic groups in Hawaii," I'm curious about why they are sicker at a younger age. There are implications for educators and for those of us working with this people group on the Big Island. Thanks.
