'The effect of rent control on the housing market' ; 'The effect of externality on the quantity produced by the market' :- are related to only those particular industry markets & not to economy as a whole.

<u>Macro Economics </u>: 'The effect of an increase in income tax on national income' :- is an impact of country's government policy at its whole national income.

You are the public relations director of a nonprofit hospital in a competitive market in a midsized city located in a metro area

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

HIV AIDS is contagious disease. It is responsibility of the healthcare professionals to handle the person with special care. This virus spread quickly in the body of the victim and the person is often unaware of the disease due to very mild or no symptoms.

Explanation:

To: CEO

Park lane Hospital

Central London,

09 - 06 -2021.

Respected Sir,

It is to bring into your knowledge about the spread of HIV/AIDS in the city. The people are unaware about the disease spread and those infected are carrying disease to others. There should be campaign run by the hospital to inform people about the spread of this contagious disease and preventions measures.

There should also be special arrangement for the people infected by the disease to stay and live in a separate house so the spread can be stopped. The hospital can allow people with symptoms for a free checkup so that more people can come and have their routine checkup.

It is high time because if the spread will increase at the same rate then controlling the disease would become difficult.

Regards,

John Andrews.

In response to threats from such companies as Amazon, established manufacturers and retailers became "brick-and-click" oriented

docker41 [41]

Answer:

Re-intermediation

Explanation:

Re-intermediation is the method applied by most businesses in using the internet to bring together new customers for a business. The advent of technology can afford business owners the possibility of eliminating physical intermediaries in a business. For example, house agents help people who are seeking for new places to live in, find houses easily. Through the internet, however, landlords can directly advertise their vacant houses, thus eliminating the agent relationship which would have served as an intermediary.

So, when established manufacturers by-pass Amazon (which is an intermediary between buyers and sellers) by adding online services to their existing offerings, they have done a re-intermediation.
