CORRECT ANSWER: A Xt Xt



There are new concerns, and of the most serious are bioterrorism and globally induced infect
Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt


ions, such as the avian flu. These threats will divert health care funds and resources from oth

Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt




CORRECT ANSWER: C Xt Xt



Bioterrorism may have an impact on the availability of resources for public safety health care

programs. Because funds are diverted it is possible that community- Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt


based programs would be eliminated, the health care system could experience changes, and
Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt Xt


that there woul be an increase in the need for shelter. However, all the remaining options wo

The PHN monitors health status in several ways, completing a community assessment is only
