Health Literacy and Societal Costs of Low Health Literacy
In a post of 175 – 200 words, discuss the following:
• What is health literacy, how is it built and how is it related to vulnerability? Give some examples.
• What do you think authors Levy and Royne mean when they assert that society, as a whole, bears the burden of low literacy (hint: this is a required reading for this module!). Can you think of an example in your own experience?
