Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Infection rates for many STIs continue to be highest among young people (typically defined as around 15–24 years old). What are some reasons for this? What would you recommend to increase prevention or encourage testing or treatment among this group?What is epidemiology? there are several ways pathogens can be transmitted including direct contact, indirect contact, via respiratory droplets, vehicle, and through a vector. Describe each mode IN DETAIL and give an example of a pathogen that can be transmitted each way.Explain what is meant by systemic infection and localised infection giving examples from practice of both terms
- A.) The difference between direct and indirect contact infection? Example B.) Name methods for breaking down transmission routesb). Explain the significance of host-agent-environment in disease causation using SARS-CoV-2 infection as an example. (ii) How may the concept of natural history of disease pathogenesis provide an understanding of the difference between prevention and control of disease.d) As the Public Health Officer charged with the prevention and control of communicable diseases in the Local Council Area, state the principles you may consider in planning an action to prevent community transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 infection.What role do virulence factors play in the four phases of infection? Describe the infection stage and any virulence factors connected with it.
- The standard response to an outbreak of avian influenza consists offive steps: (1) Quarantine, (2) Eradicate, (3) Monitor, (4) Disinfect,and (5) Test. Explain the importance of each step in stopping thespread of the virus.Describe three (3) methods by which pathogens are transmitted and give an example of each..Define the meaning of nosocomial infection and explain three potential exogenous sources
- are Large numbers of gram-negative rods in the blood a form primary or seondary type of infection? and is it latent or chronic?what are pros and cons for following prevention proceutures? how might delayed inspection affect infection prevention procedure? how could public awareness improve a health problem like this?Explain the concept of 'infection control' in a healthcare setting.
