A nurse is educating a client about preventing skin cancer.
Which of the following client statements indicates a need for further teaching?

Choice A rationale
Hepatitis A is a highly contagious virus that spreads through person-to-person contact or consuming contaminated food or drink. The virus can contaminate food during growing, harvesting, processing, handling, and even after cooking. Therefore, avoiding serving raw foods can help prevent the spread of the virus.
Choice B rationale

Hepatitis A is not typically spread through sexual intercourse. It is primarily spread through the fecal-oral route, either by person-to-person contact or consumption of contaminated food or water. Therefore, wearing barrier protection during vaginal intercourse is not a primary prevention strategy for Hepatitis A.
Choice C rationale
While it’s possible to contract Hepatitis A from food prepared at any location, including fast food restaurants, the risk is not specifically associated with these establishments. The key is whether the food is contaminated with the virus, which can occur in any setting if food is handled by someone infected with Hepatitis A who doesn’t properly wash their hands after using the toilet.
Choice D rationale
Practicing effective hand hygiene, including thoroughly washing hands after using the bathroom, changing diapers, and before preparing or eating food, is a primary prevention strategy for Hepatitis A1. The virus is spread in part by the fecal-oral route, so good hand hygiene can help prevent ingestion of the virus.

Choice A rationale
Free T4 levels are typically low in primary hypothyroidism, not elevated.

Choice B rationale
Serum T3 levels are also typically low in primary hypothyroidism.
Choice C rationale
In primary hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland is not producing enough thyroid hormone, leading to an elevated TSH level as the pituitary gland tries to stimulate more hormone production.
Choice D rationale
Serum calcium levels are not directly affected by primary hypothyroidism.
