In the days when the epidemic started, the price of the mask, which is normally $ 0.25 , has climbed up to $ 8 in the market. In this period, on average, a mask found buyers in the market for $ 4.Mask supply and demand functions:Qd = a - bPQs = -c + dPQd = QsLet's assume that it is. Here you can choose the numerical values of the a, b, c, d parameters to solve the problem. When making solutions, use them parametrically. a)Using the above information, plot the supply and demand functions for the mask market. Show consumer and producer surplus values on the chart. b)If the mask price is $ 6, write the consumer and producer residual value using the integral. (calculation is not required.) c)The Ministry of Health has announced the mask price as $ 1. According to this explanation, write the residual value of the producer and consumer using Integral. (calculation is not required)

. The health authorities are considering the treatmentalternatives for three types of diseases: heart disease,cancer, and infectious disease. Each year there are10,000 new cases of heart disease, 10,000 new casesof cancer, and 5,000 new cases of infectious disease.For each diagnosis, there are a number of mutuallyindependent treatment alternatives (including notreatment) as shown in the following table. a. Identify all dominant treatment alternatives.Explain why each is dominant.b. Calculate the incremental cost, incrementalQALYs, and ICERs for all economicallyrational strategies (ICER 5 incremental cost/incremental QALYs). Why are these consideredeconomically rational?c. Using separate graphs for heart disease, cancer,and infectious disease, show the alternativetreatment options, label the dominant options,and show the economically feasible alternatives.(Place QALYs on the vertical axis and cost pertreatment on the horizontal axis.)d. The local health district has asked your opinion…
Please no written by hand solution In 1972 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began requiring all aspirin manufacturers to package aspirin in bottles with child-resistant protective caps, to make it much harder for children to open the bottles and thus reduce the number of young children who died from overdosing on aspirin. (Children apparently thought the aspirin was candy.) Rather than decreasing, the number of young children who died from overdosing on aspirin actually increased. Use the Economic Way of Thinking to carefully and completely explain why requiring this safety device led to an increase in the number of children overdosing on aspirin.
Journalist: To reconcile the need for profits sufficient to support new drug with the moral imperative to provide medicines to those who most need them but can not afford them, some pharmaceutical companies feel justified in selling a drug in rich nations at one price and in poor nations at a much lower price. But this practice is unjustified. A nation with a low average income may still have a substantial middle class better able to pay for new drugs than are many of the poorer citizens of an overall wealthier nation. Which one of the following principles, if valid, help to support the journalist's reasoning? a. People who are ill deserve more consideration than do healthy people, regardless of their relative socioeconomic positions. b. Whether one deserves special consideration depends on one's needs rather than on the characteristics of the society to which one belongs. c. Wealthier institutions have an obligation to expend at least some of their resources to assist those incapable…
The UN Committee on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (CESCR) is charged with interpreting the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESR). In 2000 the Committee released General Comment 14, “The Right to the Highest Attainable Standard of Health”. The General Comment is important for advancing our understanding of a right to health under international law because it: (choose one) A) Sets out what has become known as the “3AQ model” addressing the conditions for health on the basis of Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality. B) Creates new, specific obligations with respect to the delivery health care services that are binding on all countries of the world C) Makes it clear that the absence of a right to health in the Canadian Charter or Rights and Freedoms means that Canada is in clear violation of its obligations under the ICESR. D) Offers an account of a right to health that has been used by health advocates around the world E) A, B…
Using data from the last 10 semesters in ETC2410, we have observed that students who attended tutorials obtained a higher mark on the final exam, on average, relative to those who did not attend tutorials. From this observation alone we can say that Select one: tutorial attendance is a good predictor of performance on the final exam O a. O b. tutorials are an essential component of learning in ETC2410 O c. if we had forced students who attended all tutorials not to attend any tutorials, they would have obtained a lower mark on their final exams, on average O d. tutorials cause better performance on the final exam O e. if we had forced students who did not attend tutorials to attend all tutorials, they would have obtained a higher mark on their final exams, on average

The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK was founded in 1948 and was the first state-run freehealthservice in the world. It originated at a time of national euphoria following victory in World War II,which generated a sense of confidence and solidarity among politicians and public. In particular it wasfelt that class distinctions were finally disappearing. The extensive rationing of products, both duringand after the war, played a big part. Not only did this result in queuing for goods by rich and poor alike,but it gave the government a sense that state control of distribution was not only possible but in manycases desirable. The basic objective was to provide all people with free medical, dental and nursingcare.It was a highly ambitious scheme that rested on various premises that have since proved flawed.These were:1 The demand for health care was finite; it was assumed that some given amount of expenditure wouldsatisfy all of the nation’s health wants.2 Health care provision could…
