The document discusses two health problems: urinary tract infection and asthma. It assesses each problem based on criteria like the nature, modifiability, preventive potential, and salience of the problem. Urinary tract infection is identified as a health threat with a score of 3.17 out of possible 5. Asthma is identified as a greater health deficit problem with a score of 3.5. Asthma is therefore ranked as the higher priority health problem to address.
