Can you learn anything from the article or report’s bibliography that tells us something about how the article or report was produced?

It was produced and published by WHO, but I don't have an opinion developed enough to learn anything from that. It is a well known name.

The patient was described as emotionally disturbed, and the behavior of spitting at the officers and so on may suggest underlying mental illnesses, a common at risk group for mistreatment.

They have incrediable amounts of research over the course of their history. Within the last year, they published a paper on the care for victims of sexual violence. This article address how they have been handling sexual violence over the past decade as well as the pressure it puts on the orgnaization and its need to continue its aid.

Compassion Protocol: Legalizing Diseased Undocumented Immigrants

In response to

Describe at least three ways that the argument is supported.

- Initially, it discusses a circular published in 1997, which addresses the problems faced by undocumented immigrants in France and the problems they face getting medical treatment, which eventually went on to turn in to law and improve the welfare of ill illegal residents. This was in the face of many years of increasing laws restricting undocumented resident’s rights in France.

- Then, it speaks of a specific plight of a French resident from Senegalese, and his request for medical attention, the avenues he had explored to get treatment, how he couldn’t return to his homeland, and how he had, in many ways, given up in the system and was relying on his failing body to arouse compassion from the government.

- Talks about how the restructuring of the French economy has changed employment needs in France; once, foreign immigrant labor powered the workforce, and made a living through their physical well-being. Now, with the decline of this type of job availability, a change was needed to how the French government deals with illness in foreign residents.
