One of the important roles of an MA is to educate the patients and/or parents/guardian for children patients. For parents who refuse to have their children vaccinated, it is important to inform them of the importance of the measles vaccine and the chances for contracting the preventable disease. It is also best to inform of the safety and the risks in taking the vaccine so that the parents can make an informed decision. It is important to keep in mind that the parents are just cautious and need reassurance.

It is key to inform them of the following:

<span>·         </span>Measles is contagious. It is caused by a virus and transmitted through the air.

<span>·         </span>Measles is preventable with MMR vaccine. The recommended dose is twice, with the first given between 12-15 months and the second between 4-6 years.

<span>·         </span>The vaccine is safe and 97% effective ( with two doses).



In situations where your personal and/or professional opinions do not corroborate with the patients' or parents', it is best to take an objective approach using research-supported information and data. It is important to identify the issues the patients/ parents have on their care and respond according to specific needs.

What are two things that the Visigoths did when they captured Rome?
Burka [1]

Answer:

The Visigoths (/ˈvɪzɪɡɒθs/; Latin: Visigothi, Wisigothi, Vesi, Visi, Wesi, Wisi) were an early Germanic people who along with the Ostrogoths constituted the two major political entities of the Goths within the Roman Empire in Late Antiquity, or what is known as the Migration Period. The Visigoths emerged from earlier Gothic groups, including a large group of Thervingi, who had moved into the Roman Empire beginning in 376 and had played a major role in defeating the Romans at the Battle of Adrianople in 378.[1] Relations between the Romans and the Visigoths were variable, alternately warring with one another and making treaties when convenient.[2] Under their first leader, Alaric I, they invaded Italy and sacked Rome in August 410. Afterwards, they began settling down, first in southern Gaul and eventually in Hispania, where they founded the Visigothic Kingdom and maintained a presence from the 5th to the 8th centuries AD.
