What are the advantages and disadvantages of keeping the Swedish alcohol retail monopoly from the perspective of the consumer and from the perspective of the Swedish state?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Systembolaget is the Swedish monopoly that was made in order to spread awareness of alcoholism, even though the Swedish drink less than any other EU country. Because of this program the individuals in the country were able to become better educated on alcoholism, which then decreased alcoholism. Because of the decrease of people wanting to drink there was also a decrease seen in smuggling, simply because individuals did not want the product. Although this may all sound goof there was some disadvantages to the monopoly.<\/p>\n

Describe the alcohol policy defined by the government in your own country, and explain if and how regulation is carried out by your government.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/strong><\/p>\n
Our government sets some bare basic policies and then leaves the rest up to the state. One of the basic policies is that one must be 21 one to drink, however that is different in some states where minors are with their parents. What I personally do not like about our drug and alcohol policies is that they are ever changing in each state. This can cause confusion to individual and lead to illegal actions to take place in certain states. For example, if you come from a state that allows your child to bring under your supervision, then you move to a state that that action is illegal, you can get into a lot of trouble. Where and when alcohol is sold is a lot differently in each state as well. When you are in the South you see that liquor stores close early and are not open on Sundays. In other parts of the country, however, you can see that places are open nearly 24\/7 365 days a year to serve you alcohol. When it comes to the government, they place the bare minimum policies and leave it to each states discretion to go into more depth in their policies and laws.<\/p>\n

What are some of the inherent tensions in creating and maintaining public\u2013private partnerships for the marketing of a health product? How can you find a win-win situation as the basis for a public-private partnership?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/strong><\/p>\n
I feel as though the win-win situation for this public-private partnership falls a lot on public health professionals. I feel as though we can at times be the liaison between the public and private sector of a health product because we work hands on with both sides. When creating a health product, we keep in mind not only the wants and needs of the consumer, but also what they need to do in order to comply with their stakeholder\u2019s agreements. By being able to work with both ends of the spectrum, we are able to create health products that both the consumers are educated and supportive within as well as making sure the private sector is getting the backing and support that they need.<\/p>\n

What are the pros and cons of balancing sustainability (e.g., systematically building a viable market for ITNs) and achieving quick public health impact (e.g., distributing millions of free ITNs)? What can be done to balance cost recovery and equity?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/strong><\/p>\n
If this were able to be done correctly, the pros would be endless. There would be a decrease of death rate, more education on the topic within the country, as well as an overall enhanced well-being. By staying healthily, you would see les individuals sick and hospitalized which would reduce bills. The cons however, would be how to find a financial backing and how to pay them back if needed. To balance cost and equity one can reach out to partnerships that are willing to financially donate to the product and program in order to see its success. If you work with a company such as a hospital, they may donate finances in order to reduce the amount of unpaid emgergency visits that will occur if the population has your product. <\/p>\n

NetMark decided it had to go far beyond the 4Ps in order to succeed in Nigeria. Under what conditions should a social marketing program go beyond the 4Ps? What are the risks, rewards, and other factors to consider?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
NetMark knew that for order for them to become successful that they would have to look outside the box and work outside of the 4Ps. In Nigeria malaria was a huge epidemic that was killing many, even small children. Even though the epidemic is not as big as it once was, it is still an ongoing issue in some of our third world countries. Because these countries needed so much help NetMark had to push themselves outside the box. The first risk that was in investors. This was an issue because this product had no proof, so it could be hard to get companies to invest in a product just off of talk. Another risk is the product did not work on some people that could ultimately result in death. However, although there was many risk if the product and program worked there could be a huge benefit of saving millions of lives. <\/p>\n

What are advantages and disadvantages of keeping the Swedish alcohol retail monopoly from the perspective of the consumer and from the perspective of the Swedish state?<\/strong><\/p>\n
The Swedish monopoly, Systembolaget, is a state owned corporation to sell 2.25% alcohol by volume In order to buy alcohol in systembolaget stores you have to be 21 years old. In other stores and restuarants you only have to be 18 years old. Systembolaget sets strict restrictions on the consumption of alcohol. Systembolaget has to compete against travelers’ imports, online purchases, and the black market for alcohol sales.<\/p>\n
Describe the alcohol policy defined by the government in your own country and explain if and how regulation is carried out by your government.<\/strong><\/p>\n
In the US you must be 21 years of age. That is the only regulation that the federal government really enforced. States get to choose the other regulations. The federal government can retain the ability to use tax incentives and federal funding to get states to support certain policies. I found it surprising that some states will allow 18 year olds to drink on their property with their parent or guardian with them. I do think this is okay because they can be supervised. In restuarants the server must be 21 to open alcoholic beverages and must be 18 to serve alcoholic beverages. I feel like their is a lot of confusion with some of the regulations and policies because it is different in each state. The only regulation and policy that is the same every where is you must be 21 to obtain alcohol and that 0.08 % is the limit of being able to operate a motorized vehicle.<\/p>\n
What are some of the inherent tensions in creating and maintaining public-private partnerships for the marketing of a public health product? How can you find a win-win situation basis for a public-private partnership?<\/strong><\/p>\n
According to the text, there is an important need for a catalyst that can bring the two sectors together and help them create a win-win situation where both sides can achieve their goals (Hayden, 2014). In life or death situations the public sector is willing to make more risks. The community or private sector will slowly build its business and watch their funds. If the public sector does not succeed then it is just replaced. If the private sector fails it is more serious and more people will be affected. There is a win-win situation in the relationship that they can have. They are able to lean on one another. One can make the ideas, while the other one is able to watch funds. <\/p>\n
What are the pros and cons of balancing sustainability and achieving quick public health impact? What can be done to balance cost recover and equity?<\/strong><\/p>\n
The pros out weigh the cons in this. The pros are less people would get sick because they would be more educated. When people are more educated they will seek help when needed instead of hoping it will get better. This will help lower death rates. The con, as most times, is funding. Where is the money going to come from to help people who can not afford it? In order to help they can do fundraisers to help raise money by the community to help eveyrone.<\/p>\n
NetMark decided it had to go far beyond the 4Ps in order to succeed in Nigeria. Under what conditions should a social marketing program go beyond the 4Ps? What are the risks, rewards, and other factors to consider?<\/strong><\/p>\n
It is good to go beyond the 4Ps to reach all aspects. It is okay to think outside the box to reach more goals and be able to save more people. The risk is it could be more costly or it could take too long to figure out what is really needed. The rewards is knowing you are helping more people and reaching more people by thinking outside the box. The major things to consider like stated before is time and funding.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
