Gerald is admitted to the hospital because he has pneumonia. His blood work shows a low number of T-cells. The doctor wants to o

rder a test to see if Gerald is HIV positive. Why would the doctor do this? HIV attacks T-cells. If Gerald has HIV, he will have a lower T-cell count, and his immune system will be less able to protect him from other diseases. HIV attacks the pneumonia virus and uses cells to reproduce. If Gerald has HIV, he will also have pneumonia. Gerald may have taken antibiotics for HIV. These antibiotics would make his immune system more susceptible to pneumonia. Bacteria create an infection that strengthens the immune system to fight off HIV, but not pneumonia. This is why Gerald still has pneumonia.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer: A) Paternalism

Explanation:

This phenomenon is the effort of a group, organization, and political structures to abolish certain human freedoms under the pretext that it is the best decision at a certain moment. Paternalism is also evident in the relationship between parents and children, so we often witness how parents forbid certain things to children because they think they are bad. If they do not have to be, they are often the product of subjective observations. Many experts consider Paternalism a negative phenomenon because the hesitation of freedoms must never be the solution.
