Language difficulties, HIV infection, and mental illness are not known socioeconomic detriments to health for immigrants.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

The social detriments of a vulnerable population include where the person lives, where the person works, and whether there is access to healthcare services. Visual problems, hearing problems, and communications issues are all linked to disabilities, which are considered physical detriments.
