Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
400 g of folic acid are recommended daily. Supplements of iron and Vitamin C are not recom-mended during preconceptual counseling. Supplements of calcium may be recommended to pre-vent bone loss, but not for preconceptual counseling.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The goal of Healthy People 2020 is to promote responsible sexual behaviors, strengthen commu-nity capacity, and increase access to quality services to prevent STDs and their complications. Nursing activities should align with these goals through development of an STD clinic to increase community access to services. Immunization clinics will not prevent the spread of most STDs. Education without access to services will not assist with reducing the problem.

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.
