MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. What is the primary focus to be addressed concerning the improvement of the health of the
American people in the twenty-first century?
a. Bioterrorism and global health threats
b. Delivery of individual care and hygiene
c. The need for increased hospital and acute care
d. Chronic disease and disability management
ANS: A
Rationale:
Correct: In the 21st century, one of the most pressing concerns for public health is the threat of bioterrorism
and the spread of global infectious diseases such as avian influenza and COVID-19. These emerging threats
demand immediate attention and the redirection of resources to ensure rapid response, surveillance, public
safety, and national preparedness. These threats are not only a direct risk to health but also strain healthcare
systems and shift policy and funding priorities.
Incorrect: Options B, C, and D refer to important but longstanding healthcare concerns that have been
addressed over time. However, they do not pose the same level of acute risk to national security and public
health systems as bioterrorism and emerging infections.
2. A community is concerned about the threat of bioterrorism. Which of the following best describes
the basis for this concern?
a. Bioterrorism has the potential to dissolve community-based programs.
b. This threat could cause the health care system to collapse.
c. The threat may divert funds from other public safety health care programs.
d. Fear of bioterrorism will increase the need for shelters.
ANS: C
Rationale:
Correct: Bioterrorism poses a threat not only due to the potential health crisis it can cause, but also because
it can shift public funding away from essential community services like immunization programs, chronic
disease prevention, and health education. This reallocation of resources affects the public health
infrastructure as a whole.
