Answer:

-The flood shifts the supply to the left.

-The flood does not shift the demand curve.

-The increase in healthcare costs shifts the supply curve to the left.

-The increase in healthcare costs doesn't shift the demand curve.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decrease in supply will shift supply to the left and increase in supply cost will shift supply left, and demand will not change
