Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Based on epidemiologic research, depression is one of the leading disease burdens in middle- and high-income countries, such as the United States. By 2030, depression is projected to be the leading burden worldwide.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
One way to reduce public stigma is to use nonstigmatizing language. Rather than referring to the client as schizophrenic or bipolar, it is more appropriate to say the client with schizophrenia or the client with bipolar disorder. Terms such as maniac and psycho reinforce the negative images of mental illness.

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.
