Solution :

The risk averse is the person who wishes to reduce the uncertainty attached to the money.

Certain income = $2000.

50-50 chance of 1000 and 3000 would income expected income of

(0.5 x 1000) +(0.5 x 3000) = 2000

Both of them gives an equal amount of income while there is uncertainty attached with the second case which makes the risk averse person disincline to follow.

Hence the statement is FALSE.

Assume that the population level in a country is X. 5 percent of the population are likely to get affected by the disease due to which it makes a population of 0.05 X population to be effected by the disease. The population level will cost  $38,000, hence making the total healthcare cost to be 1900 X.
