During an outbreak of measles, nurses are giving measles vaccinations to susceptible persons. Which of the following best describes the type of immunity that will follow the administration of these injections?

A. Call the local hospital and arrange a referral: A referral does not immediately address the family’s communication needs. The nurse should first attempt to provide care with proper interpretation.

B. Attempt communication using an English-Spanish phrase book: A phrase book is inadequate for complex medical discussions and could lead to miscommunication.

C. Emphatically state, "No hablo Español" (I don't speak Spanish): This response is dismissive and does not help the family receive the care they need.

D. Obtain an interpreter to translate: The best practice is to use a professional interpreter to ensure accurate communication and avoid misunderstandings in medical care.

A. The incidence of asthma among children has been decreasing: The incidence of childhood asthma has been increasing due to rising air pollution, allergens, and environmental triggers.

B. Children are more susceptible to environmental toxins because of their smaller size: Due to their lower body weight, developing organs, and higher metabolic rate, children absorb toxins more readily and are more vulnerable to harmful effects.

C. Children are more susceptible to cancer if they have a family history of the disease: While family history plays a role, environmental exposures (e.g., radiation, chemicals) also contribute significantly to childhood cancer risk.

D. The prevalence of autism is directly related to the increase in environmental toxins: While research is ongoing, no definitive causal link has been established between environmental toxins and autism. Autism is influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors.
