answer these questions please
1.Identify the problem: Covid-19
2.Identify the source of the problem: A pandemic that originated in Wuhan, China.
3.Identify the solution: A government-mandated vaccine.
4.Identify the cost/benefit:
The cost of vaccinating the world against COVID-19 could be at least five times cheaper if pharmaceutical companies weren’t profiteering from their monopolies on COVID-19 vaccines, campaigners from the People’s Vaccine Alliance said today.
1) In the United States, as a way to combat the spread of the virus officials declared a “mask mandate” nationwide which required each person to wear a mask inside all public areas. In addition, all businesses were mandated to take extra disinfecting and cleaning measures. In each public area a “six feet rule” was also required. In regard to Laos, what measures did their government take to reduce the spread of Covid-19?
2)In the United States, a covid-19 test is extremely accessible for all citizens no matter their socioeconomic status. If a person feels symptoms or is required to provide proof of a negative test, they are able to go to their nearest testing site, laboratory, clinic, hospital, etc. to be tested immediately. In addition, results are available now anywhere between a few hours to two days. For a person living in Laos, what is their accessibility to a test and how long is the response time?
3)As a measure to prevent a large wave of Covid-19 again, the United States has mandated a vaccine. This mandate requires all city jobs, all public area workers, students, teachers, caregivers etc. to be vaccinated in order to work in or attend these places. In addition, all businesses are required to ask for a proof of vaccine if the individual wants to eat or sit in doors. Is there a mandated vaccine in action in Laos, and is the experience similar there?
4)After the Covid-19 nationwide shut down that lasted a couple months, there were many businesses that went bankrupt and were forced to shut down. As a result, millions of people were left jobless with bills through the roof. The government began to provide unemployment, pandemic unemployment assitance, grants, or PPPs loans to those affected. In Laos, are people receiving financial support due to Covid-19? Is the government taking measures to ensure this money is being used for fair and honest reasons?
5)In the United States, the vaccine mandate has made it clear that officials in this country believe that the vaccine can help prevent the spread of Covid-19 ever again in the next few years to come or prevent a future pandemic wave. In the mindset of officials and citizens of Laos, are their views similar? Explain in examples.
