        這周是我們第一次參與文建站的活動，我和Annabelle見到了李金妹、李金蘭阿嬤兩姊妹，還有何秀妹阿嬤。金蘭阿嬤的五官深邃，總覺得看起來有點酷；金妹阿嬤看起來很聰明，而且相當健談，說話很有條理；秀妹阿嬤則是非常的活潑可愛，說話有很多生動的小動作。

This article focuses on the fact that there not only biological aspects of disease and the spread of it, but also social factors that need more attention. The article cites that epidemic disease is linked with social conditions such as structural violence, education, income and more. The article addresses the fact that social conditions have an effect on disease prevention and many diseases quickly become diseases of the poor due to this. There are social conditions that effect patient's abilities to defend themselves against disease based off money, social condition, infrastructure, access to food etc. The concept of structural violence and its effects on disease spread within the poor community is discussed and analyzed. Overall, the main point to be driven home is the fact that disease spread can be decreased with the reconfiguration and addressing of social issues.

The American Red Cross is heavily based off team work and altruism. As stated earlier, those that respond are volunteers, they are not obligated to help but they want to. The Red Cross volunteers work together as a team for the goal of aiding and tending to those in need, to the best of their ability. Their volunteering shows they perceive disaster as an unpredictable thing, but something that other members of the community can help those devastated get through.
