Option 1

 * Article title

 * Article Evaluation
 * Great for definitions and setting a baseline for what is considered to be "healthy". It also discusses determinants, potential issues, and maintenance of ones health. This article has been written neutrally, but is suggested to be combined with mental health. Claims do have citations. Many sources are public health organizations and universities.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Covid-19 pandemic in the United States


 * Article Evaluation
 * Contains a lot of timeline clarifications and significant data. The pandemics economic and social impacts on the country are also included. The article seems to be written neutrally for the most part, though there is no direct discussion of politics some of the publisher's word choice suggests slight bias. Claims and data have citations. All of the sources are from 2019 or sooner, of course.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on healthcare workers


 * Article Evaluation
 * Addresses the physical and psychological impact that the pandemic has had on healthcare workers. In addition, the risk of infection, shortage of PPE, violence experience, and ethical decisions are discussed. I also find it interesting that the impact on specifically female staff is shortly, but directly, mentioned. All claims have citations. The sources used are all from the year 2018 or sooner except for one from 2007 from the previous SARS situation. This article is neutral. Overall I feel that this will be very useful for my topic.
