Answer to Question 1

D
Lillian Wald was the first community health nurse. She founded the Henry Street Settlement Service in New York City and devoted her life to providing nursing care to the indigent population, supported education for people who were mentally challenged, improved housing conditions in tenements, advocated the passage of more lenient immigration regulations, initiated change of child labor laws, and founded the Children's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Labor.

Answer to Question 2

B
Each person must make a proactive choice to be as prepared as possible against biological attacks. The only way to do this is for children and adults to become immunized and keep all immunizations up to date.
