Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
A negative effect of globalization is the brain drain that results when educated society members migrate from lower-resource countries to higher-resource countries. Thus, many groups who could most benefit from increased access to information and communication technology are unable to enjoy the benefits these technologies bring to health care because of challenges with untrained personnel and lack of infrastructure and resources. Diffusion of ideas, expansion of trade, and global stewardship are among the positive effects of globalization.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Global health is health issues that transcend national boundaries and may best be addressed by cooperative actions. Health disparities are differences in the incidence, prevalence, mortality, and burden of diseases and other adverse health conditions that exist among specific population groups in the United States. Globalization is a term used to refer to the increasing economic, political, social, technological, and intellectual interconnectedness of the world. Global stewardship is influenced by international and global exchanges, leading to growing recognition of common threats, as well as opportunities, and a sense of growing solidarity and commitment to collaboration to promote global social justice and equity.
