Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
PHNs practice in partnership with each other at the local, state, and federal levels and with other public health staff, other governmental agencies, and the community to safeguard the public's health and to improve the community's health status. All of these people would provide valuable insight into the problem of obesity in the community.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
All PHNs should have a background in the social and behavioral sciences, epidemiology, envi-ronmental health, current treatment modalities, and health care delivery options in order to fully understand health policy, research, and treatment choices and to translate this knowledge into the promotion of healthy populations.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Vaccines prevent between 2.5 and 4 million deaths every year.
