_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
2.
_____________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________
Let Us Reflect
Today you have read and understand the formulated health related
laws. I hope you continue to read more about these laws because it is
important that you are aware of them. Remember, IGNORANCE OF THE LAW
EXCUSES NO ONE FROM COMPLIANCE THEREWITH. So, if you have
committed an offense or any crime you are never excused. If the crime is
committed while you are a minor, you will have your punishment when you
reach the legal age. So, be aware and be careful not to make any mistake that
may be or can be punishable by law.
Congratulations! You have accomplished this module and you did a
great job! I hope you enjoy answering this module and continue this
enthusiasm with the following modules. See you! God Bless
