Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
As treatment was knowingly withheld over many years resulting in incredible harm to the subjects and their families, public outrage over unethical, racist, and discriminatory behavior of the researchers continues today.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, E, F
The person-place-time model suggests epidemiologists examine demographic characteristics of the community (person characteristics), geographic or environmental factors (place), and a point in time (i.e., the present in comparison with the past and hope for future). Therefore, using the model, any item related to geographic boundaries, persons with shared goals, or a particular time would be correct.
