Describe 3 health behavior strategies and the corresponding theory of health behavior change for increasing the uptake of the potential COVID-19 vaccine.
Please be specific regarding which theory (or theories) you are using and the corresponding strategy. For example, using the Theory of Planned Behavior, you might focus on changing parental attitudes about getting the vaccine by creating an instagram posts/videos for parents that focus on the way they value their children's education. The video would demonstrate that by getting the vaccine, it will enable their child - and their child's friends - to be able to attend school in-person.
describe 3 behavior change strategies that encompass multiple levels including strategies that, 1) medical and other social service providers can use with individual patients/families to get them to get the vaccine and/or vaccinate their children; 2) social strategies, including strategies for changing social norms about the benefits of getting the vaccine, and 3) structural strategies including ease of obtaining the vaccine such as the availability, price, amount of time required, etc.

Income and Poverty

Economists believe people should get paid according to the value of the output they produce. This is fairly easy to determine when you produce something physical, such as cupcakes. However, it becomes very difficult to measure if you are providing a service (perhaps teaching, or you're a doctor treating a medical condition). Regardless of how you measure the value of the output, the more productive you are the more valuable you are in the market to potential employers. This is the reason many economists are against the minimum wage and are for programs that contribute to improving an employee's productivity (such as education and training). There is surprising agreement with just how important education is in minimizing income inequality among economists. Given this information, what would you recommend to policy makers? What do you think about various school districts having vastly different access to resources around the state, or even the country? Recall, spending more money on education does have an opportunity cost - be sure to include that in your answer. |

The dean of the School of Fine Arts is trying to decide whether to purchase a copy machine to place in the lobby of the building. The machine would add to student convenience, but the dean feels compelled to earn an 12 percent return on the investment of funds. Estimates of cash inflows from copy machines that have been placed in other university buildings indicate that the copy machine would probably produce incremental cash inflows of approximately $19,500 per year. The machine is expected to have a three-year useful life with a zero salvage value. (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)
Required
a. Use Present Value Appendix PV of $1, to determine the maximum amount of cash the dean should be willing to pay for a copy machine. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Use Present Value Appendix PVA of $1, to determine the maximum amount of cash the dean should be willing to pay for a copy machine. (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)

Alicia is a busy university student who spends her days in university attending classes or studying. In addition to her three meals, she packs two snacks to take with her to school. However, she doesn't always consume both snacks. Let X be the number of snacks she consumes per day. The distribution of X is as follows: x 0 1 2 P(X=x) 0.05 0.35 0.60 Assume the number of snacks per day is independent from day to day. A.[5] Find the sampling distribution of the average of snacks for two randomly selected days. B.[6] Find the expected value and variance for both X and �%. C.[3] Suppose that 36 days were selected at random. What is the sampling distribution of the sample mean based on n = 36? Why? D.[3] Suppose that 36 days were selected at random. What is the probability that the average number of snacks that Alicia consumed is at most 2.5 snacks per day, during the selected 36 days.

“Like a polio ward from the 1950s” is how Guy McKhann, M.D., a neurology specialist at John Hopkins School of Medicine, describes a ward of Beijing Hospital that he visited on a trip to China in 1986. Dozens of paralyzed children---some attached to respirators to assist their breathing--filled the ward to overflowing. The chinese doctors thought the children had Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), a rare paralytic condition, but Dr. McKhann wasn’t convinced. There were simply too many stricken children for the illness to be the rate Guillain-Barre syndrome. Was it polio--as some of the Beijing staff feared? Or was it another illness, perhaps one that had not yet been discovered? Guillain-Barre syndrome is a relatively rare paralytic condition that strikes after a viral infection or an immunization. There is no cure, but usually the paralysis slowly disappears, and lost sensation slowly returns as the body repairs itself. In classic Guillain-Barre, patients can neither feel sensations nor move their muscles.
Is the paralytic illness that affected the chinese children a demyelinating condition? Why or why not?

The city of Belle collects property taxes for other local governments—Beau County and the Landis Independent School District (LISD). The city uses a Property Tax Collection Custodial Fund to account for its collection of property taxes for itself, Beau County, and LISD.
Prepare journal entries to record the following transactions and events for Belle’s Custodial Fund during calendar year 2019.
1. During 2019, property taxes were levied for Belle ($2,000,000), Beau County ($1,000,000) and LISD ($3,000,000). Assume taxes collected by the Custodial Fund will be paid to Belle’s General Fund.
2. Property taxes in the amount of $4,500,000 are collected. The percentage collected for each entity is in the same proportion as the original levy.
3. The amount owed to the city of Belle, Beau County, and LISD is recognized. The city of Belle charges an administrative fee to Beau County ($20,000) and LISD ($60,000) to collect the taxes, which reduces the amount owed to Beau County and LISD.
4. The Custodial Fund distributes the amount owed to the three governments.
