What is your chosen action from the above list?
Ethics Evaluation
Choose ONE of the following ethical issues related to the current coronavirus pandemic:
· Government-ordered forced shut down of non-essential businesses
· Closure of international borders
· Forced quarantine (including government-mandated curfews)
· Mask mandates (requirement to wear masks in public)
Next, evaluate the action on the basis of the conditions that must be met in order to consider the public health action justified. Walk me through your reasoning for EACH principle. Do not simply answer ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ Each condition should be accompanied by a 3-4 sentence explanation of your thoughts and consideration of the question.
1) What is your chosen action from the above list?
2) Effectiveness: Is the action likely to accomplish the public health goal? (Additional questions to help shape your response: What is the public health goal? How does the action help achieve or not achieve the goal?)
3) Necessity: Is the action necessary to override the conflicting ethical claims to achieve the public health goal? (Additional questions to help shape your response: What are the conflicting ethical claims associated with taking the action? Is the action necessary to achieve the public health goal or are there alternatives?)
4) Least infringement: Is the action the least restrictive and least intrusive? (Additional questions to help shape your response: Are there alternatives that are less restrictive than the action?)
5) Proportionality: Will the probable benefits of the action outweigh the infringed moral norms and any negative effects? (Additional questions to help shape your response: What are the probable benefits? Is the potential outcome provide enough of a benefit over harms to justify infringing on moral norms and values?)
6) Impartiality: Are all potentially affected stakeholders treated impartially (equally)? (Additional questions to help shape your response: Who are the stakeholders? Stakeholders are anyone who is impacted by the action. Is there anyone who would be disproportionately impacted by the action? Consider based on social determinants of health—income, education level, housing, employment, etc)
7) Public justification: Can public health officials offer public justification that citizens, in particular those most affected, could find acceptable in principle? (Additional questions to help shape your response: What type of justification might make the action more acceptable to people? Is there no justification that people could find acceptable? Why or why not?)
8) After evaluating your responses above, tell me whether the action is ethical or not ethical, and be sure to provide a one or two paragraph reasoning.

What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis?
Complete and submit your Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation, including your differential diagnosis and critical-thinking process to formulate a primary diagnosis. Incorporate the following into your responses in the template:
- Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
- Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
- Assessment: Discuss the patient’s mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses with supporting evidence, listed in order from highest priority to lowest priority. Compare the DSM-5-TR diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what DSM-5 criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis. Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.
- Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this client if you could conduct the session over? Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!), health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).
Identify the research problem in detail, explaining some of the background of the problem and how the researcher has approached finding a solution to this problem.
Assignment:
1. Pick a new research study using your choice of a database option, carefully reading through it to be certain that it contains a good example of a positive research study along with excellent procedures, sample descriptions, and findings.
2. Identify the research problem in detail, explaining some of the background of the problem and how the researcher has approached finding a solution to this problem. Be sure to explain how the questions selected will help to support the necessary answers to the problem.
3. Once you have successfully described the problem you will then explain how you would change the actual research method being used. If it is a quantitative study, how would you redirect the problem/question to be viewed as a Qualitative study and vice versa.

GG Freightways (GGFRT) IT Strategic Plan, Part 1
Before you begin this assignment, be sure you have read the “GG Freightways Case Study” and all the course content from Weeks 1 and 2.
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply the course concepts to begin development of an Information Technology Strategic Plan (ITSP) to support the strategic direction of GG Freightways (GGFRT). This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes to enable you to:
· identify, define, and explain the concepts of information technology governance and management
IT Strategic Plan for GG Freightways
Lance, the new CIO at GGFRT, has asked you to write an IT Strategic Plan that he can use to guide the direction for his organization. The ITSP will be developed in two parts. This assignment covers Part 1; Part 2 will be covered in the next class assignment. Together, they will form an ITSP that has been tailored to the course material covered in this class. You may work for an organization that has an ITSP, and it would be a good idea for you to look at it, but it will likely be structured a little differently from this one. Each organization develops an ITSP that will work for them.
Assignment
You will develop Part 1 of the ITSP for GG Freightways (GGFRT), using the outline below. Each of the topics to be included in your outline is covered in the course content readings assigned thus far. In addition to the course materials, at least two external resources (resources other than those provided in the class) must be used. Two or more cited references will earn top credit. Use a separate References page to list just the references you have cited. Remember to use the APA formatting rules and correctly cite and reference your sources with APA format. Use the Grading Rubric to be sure you have covered everything.
Please use this outline to build your IT Strategic Plan. Use the numbering and headings shown below.
Part One
1. Business Statement – Summarize in one paragraph, in your own words, the business of GGFRT. Include the locations of the company/terminals/maintenance facilities, fleet information/details (breakdown), and current/future financial climate/goals (with cost savings). Refer to Case Study.
2. Business Strategic Objectives – In the Case Study, the management team has identified three (3) new strategic objectives. Using the following table (copy/paste it into your assignment), List/fully state the three (3) objectives, then, in your own words, in full sentences, add a brief explanation to each one. Next add a new strategic objective of your own – one that you consider important to the current and future health of GGFRT’s business. In the explanation (for the new objective only), it should also add a statement of how the management team would improve the business of GGFRT. It can be one of the three federal/state regulations that the company wants to remain in compliance with, or a new one that you choose. Write a brief introductory paragraph prior to the table. The paragraph must come first before your table, to explain what the table is providing.
What is the function of the normal (not mutated) gene?
Introduction
There is a tremendous amount of important genetic information available online, in fact, some information is really available only online. However, the Genbank
and OMIM scientific databases are very technical and are too difficult for most people to use. These are typically databases that a scientist would access for large amounts of detail that a general audience might not need. A potential solution to this would be entries written for a general audience in the open source Wikipedia
encyclopedia project.
I would like you to to put your genetics knowledge to some use by researching a human genetic disease using Genbank
, OMIM
and other specialized databases, and then writing a report for the Wikipedia
that summarizes the key information about the gene.
Your writing assignment should include the following discussions:
1. What is the function of the normal (not mutated) gene?
2. Discuss the mutations responsible for the most common alleles, at both the DNA level and the protein level (point mutations, insertions, missense, frameshift, etc.).
**Update, please note, if you pick a disorder that has a chromosome deletion, you need to list every gene that is lost and discuss known mutations for those genes**
3. Whether the mutant alleles (usually a disease causing allele) are dominant or recessive, the consequences of inheriting the mutant allele (what are the symptoms, how is the disease treated, what is the prognosis for an afflicted individual, etc.), the frequency of the mutant allele in the population.
4. Since genetic diseases are inherited, a family wanting to have a child could consult with a medical geneticist before getting pregnant especially if there is a known family history. Why might genetic counseling be useful for such parents? Do
