A new form of gastrointestinal disease is sweeping the country of Concordia. Like histoplasmosis, it is transmitted as an airborne fungus. Although the disease is almost never fatal, an attack is extremely painful and the sufferer is unable to work for about 2 weeks. The government of Concordia wishes to determine how much money, if any, to spend on attempting to eradicate the disease. The committee charged with advising the Department of Public Health is considering four aspects of the problem: health care costs (Concordia provides free health care to all its citizens), loss of earnings (and hence loss of taxes), pain and discomfort, and gratitude toward the government.
 Explain how cost–benefit analysis can assist the committee.
Â
 For each benefit or cost, suggest how a dollar estimate for that benefit or cost could be obtained.
