Ms. Johnson, age 57, was referred to the gastroenterologist for chronic digestive problems. For at least a year, she said, her stomach ached after eating a small meal. It seemed like the dull pain she experienced, and the sensation of fullness, had increased recently. Ms. Johnson also felt abdominal cramping, and sometimes nausea, at times other than after eating.
After taking a complete history and performing a physical examination, the gastroenterologist ordered several tests. Her conclusion was that Ms. Johnson had chronic gastritis caused by an infection with a bacterium.

Case Study
The hospice nurse sat with Ann's husband, Ben. Ann was resting quietly as the increased dosage of IV pain medication gradually reached its therapeutic level. Ben turned his head and slowly turned, looking out the room's only window. As he glanced up, a small flicker of light caught his breath. It was a shooting star. A tear fell from the corner of his eye and he turned to Ann. The nurse sensed that something significant to Ann and Ben was unfolding. Shuffling to Ann's bedside, he took her small fragile hand in his. These hands had rocked cradles, burped babies, and groomed the horses she loved to ride. Gently holding her hand, he turned to the nurse. "She would ride like the wind was chasing her." Looking back to Ann his voice broke; choking back tears "Ann, Ann I saw Jessie…Jessie is calling." Ben turned "Jessie was our daughter. She died having a baby that was too big. When she died it was a pitch-black night. Cold, so cold, the baby died too, a little boy, named him Abe, Jr. after Jessie's husband. I took Ann outside so she could cry to God above and there in this dark sky we saw two falling stars…together…just falling. We knew it had to be Jessie and Abe…two angels to light up the night." Ben turned back as a deep sigh escaped from Ann's lips. A soft smile remained as she joined Jessie and Abe.

COVID-19 could be one of the largest public health incidents in human history. The last time was the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, the deadliest in human history, infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide—about one-third of the planet’s population—and killed an estimated 20 million to 50 million victims, including some 675,000 Americans. As of October 5, 2020, more than 35.3 million COVID-19 cases have been reported across 188 countries with more than 1.03 million deaths. In the U.S. more than 7 million people have been infected and more than 200,000 have died. As we go into the winter, tens of thousands of new cases are reported everyday nationwide. The head of emergencies at the World Health Organization just said the agency’s “best estimates” indicate roughly 10% of population worldwide may have already been infected by the coronavirus — more than 20 times the number of confirmed cases — and warned of a difficult period ahead.
Several years ago, Billionaire Bill Gates predicted coronavirus-like outbreak. He warned that it takes years to find a cure for a new form of virus outbreak. He gave a warning that the world wasn’t prepared for pandemics, which should “concern us all.” Speaking in 2018, Gates said he believed “the world needs to prepare for pandemics in the same serious way it prepares for war.”
Watch the 2015 Ted Talk by Bill Gates “The next outbreak? We’re not ready”. Do a small research, and discuss the following real global health questions in this forum, Gates said “history has taught us there will be another deadly global pandemic” but why we are still so ill-prepared for a pandemic like COVID-19? How do we exactly "flatten the curve" in the coming cold season? How should we prepare for a possible pandemic in the future?

As a Human Resources manager for a mid-sized company in your area, you have been tasked with purchasing the best group health insurance for your organization. Analyze at least two (2) lifestyle choices relative to the effect(s) that these choices could have on the organization’s premiums. Support your rationale with two (2) health economic examples. Debate It: Take a position that the full implementation of the Affordable Care Act in 2014 will or will not create a market failure for insurance companies. Provide evidence to support your position.

The human body maintains its internal temperature through thermoregulation, and a healthy adult has a mean body temperature of 98.6 °F. The processes of thermoregulation begin to deteriorate in older age, making it difficult to diagnose elderly patients who might have an illness. To understand the body temperature of elderly patients, researchers randomly sampled the body temperatures of elderly patients from a large database of medical records where the body temperatures were normally distributed.
Conduct a two‑tailed, one‑sample ?t‑test to determine whether the mean body temperature of the elderly patients is different from that of a healthy adult using the sample data below (in degrees Farenheit). Use a significance level of ?=0.05α=0.05. If the requirements for a ?t‑test have not been met, only answer the first question. Otherwise, answer all eight questions.

Are the requirements for the one-sample ?t‑test met? Why or why not?
If the requirements have not been met, do not continue. Otherwise, select the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.
Calculate the one‑sample ?t‑statistic to two decimal places and the resulting ?p‑value of the test to three decimal places. You may calculate ?t by hand if you wish, but you will need software to compute the ?p‑value. Click on this link to load the given data set into the statistical software CrunchIt.

Problem Set 1: A human resources manager at a company knows that the employee population is 30% female/70% male. He wants to know if this same proportion holds for the number of disciplinary “write-ups” in employee files. His company’s data for disciplinary write-ups of all 75 employees are provided in the table below. Hint: Review Week 4.
