Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Aretaeus the Cappadocian described pulmonary tuberculosis in detail. Hippocrates of Cos was the first to record the relationship of the external environment to the health of individuals. Claudius Galen described the four humors, introduced many drugs derived from plants, and was the first to describe smallpox. Susruta was a Brahmin physician who associated malaria with the mosquito.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, C, E
Feedback:
Advancing the scientific understanding of secondary HIV prevention (what is called positive prevention) in African-American women by exploring ways to address behavioral risk reduction prevents further transmission of HIV and the serious negative psychological consequences of living with HIV disease. African-American women experience disproportionate levels of (1) interpersonal mistrust and fear of disclosure related to perceived stigma, (2) poor adherence to treatment and other health promotion and disease prevention efforts, (3) delay in seeking care related to mental health comorbidities and addiction recovery issues, and (4) compromised self-advocacy in sexual relationships. Alcoholism and smoking are not behavioral risks associated with African-American women living with HIV.

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.
