Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
The 10 great public health achievements in the 20th century are immunizations; improvements in motor vehicle safety; workplace safety; control of infectious diseases; decline in deaths from heart disease and stroke; safer and healthier foods; healthier mothers and babies; family planning; fluoridation of drinking water; and recognition of tobacco as a health hazard.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The American Nurses Association defines a population as those living in a specific geographic area (e.g., neighborhood, community, city, or county) or those in a particular group (e.g., racial, ethnic, age, disease) who experience a disproportionate burden of poor health outcomes. Using this definition, clients living in Chicago with diabetes represent a population. Diabetes is an example of a particular group in a particular geographic area. The world is not a specific geographic area. Neither immunization clinics in California nor poverty in four continents reflects a specific set of clients.

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.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
