[edit] Can

Can someone stop medical geography from redirecting to health geography because it's not the same thing at all. Thank you Supposed 20:47, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Health geography is used as a term that covers also the area of study of medical geography. It's Ok, that it redirects here. There's no need to write another article about medical geography, at least for now. You can better expand this article. GeoW 19:01, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

I understand what you're saying but medical geography is not health geography persay. Health geography came out of it but medical geography is all about the bio-medical model and logical positivism whereas health geography is grounded in structuration structuralism feminism etc as well as logical positivism Supposed 06:16, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Anyone fancy defining access to healthcare as a seperate article. This is a huge area and would make a good article. I will try and add something once my semester is over but would be cool if someone were to start it in my absence. Supposed 16:41, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
