Answer 1

1. The health concerns of the community these days is about vector borne because it's rainy season here and the chances of dengue , malaria , japanese encephalitis etc are more due to the increased growth of mosquitoes . The community is emphasizing on the prevention methods like creating awareness , keeping environment clean ,n open storage of water etc .

2. Environment risk assessment is a method of assessing the risk factors ,then mitigating and monitoring the effects of a recognised risk that have potential hazardous effect on public health .

The steps of the environment risk assessment method are:-

- identify the hazard

- decide who might be affected and how

- evaluate the risks and decide on precautions

- record your findings and implement them

- review your assessment and update if necessary .

3. New prevention or intervention program based on research . People learn through experiences . They don't give importance to things until and unless they are affected by it . So my new intervention to prevent disease is to make people experience the real conditions of the people who are affected by the diseases so that by the direct visualisation of pain and suffering what other people is experiencing they will get motivated to give importance and will follow the factors of prevention of disease because offcourse no one wants to be sick and when someone is directly shown the suffering in reality it's difficult for them to be on that state and they will start following the prevention methods .
