Part 1: Description of Research
My research paper will analyze the epidemiological transition as the main cause to affect health outcome of disease between OECD and Non-OECD countries. I will use three approaches to support it. I will select HIV/AIDS as the major point and use political economy approach to explain the differences between OECD and Non-OECD countries. First, I will show the death rate of HIV/AIDS for at least 20 countries (OECD and Non-OECD). This data will answer the health outcome in these countries such as mortality and treatment. In addition, the political economy approach could obviously interpret the effect of HIV/AIDS in the epidemiological transition with GDP/capita and income level. This part will extend to food, stress-length, environment and inequality. These data will allow me to compare OECD and Non-OECD countries and the effect in the epidemiological transition.
Part 2: List of Research Variables
The HIV/AIDS death rate for at least 20 countries will be from the WHO database, and this database shows the number of deaths distribution around the world. I will select the number of deaths of HIV from 2000 to 2019. In addition, I will download the decline in HIV incidence and mortality from 1990 to 2019.

The GDP/capita will be from the OECD database, these will clearly demonstrate 20 countries of OECD and Non-OECD countries details. I will download 10 OECD and 10 Non-OECD countries GDP and income for 10 years, which are helping me to compare them into 2 groups.

The data of total health and social employment, income distribution, and food will be also from OECD database, I will select 20 countries with the total population. These data could extend to food, environment and inequality in each country and support my argument.

Comment
The expression of epidemiological transition as a function of income and wealth is interesting.Creating the dataset to support such analysis will be important.
