Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: Public health informatics (PHI) is defined in several ways but one of the most widely accepted definitions of PHI is the systematic application of information and computer science and technology to public health practice, research and learning (Yasnoff, O'Carroll, Koo, Linkins, & Kilbourne, 2000, p. 67). Public health has always been about disease surveillance and management and it is apparent that identification of major disease outbreaks, particularly epidemics, influences recognition of disease causation, distribution of disease, and frequency of disease occurrence or transmission (Macha & McDonough, 2012).

Answer to Question 2

1,3,4,5
Rationale: Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, and Linked In are available online as communication conduits. Individuals join the sites to begin the process.
