Each case requires the following information to be addressed: Include relevant cultural and systemic considerations that frame the client’s presentation. Describe what information has been provided in each case that helps to determine which disorders are appropriate for consideration (differential diagnoses) for a final diagnosis. Evaluate how the attached Beck Depression assessment tool, will aid in obtaining further information to back up the final diagnosis. The Differential Diagnosis Decision Tree may be helpful to guide this process. Present DSM-5 and ICD-10 codes, including relevant V and Z codes. Provide a descriptive rationale for the DSM diagnosis that best fits the information provided including relevant ICD codes. This should be written in a narrative form using complete sentences.

Based on class notes and your reading of The Invisible Cure, write an essay on the cultural, political and social structural factors, past and present, that have made the HIV outbreak particularly severe in sub-Saharan Africa and what we have learned about how to deal with such an outbreak. Provide specific evidence from the book to back up your claims. A good answer will be broad and synthetic. In particular, your essay should address these sets of questions: How reliable is it? What factors worsened the outbreak? What factors, both current and historic, made Uganda more successful than many richer countries like South Africa or Botswana at curtailing the spread of HIV? What is collective efficacy? How can collective efficacy work for controlling outbreaks of more easily communicable diseases, like Ebola or measles?
