Food Safety

This is a microbiology lab. Just answer the questions that I have highlighted. Don’t worry about anything else.

 

how you should proceed as an epidemiologist

You are the public health official! Review the following case study, and discuss how you should proceed as an epidemiologist.

Case study: Over 30 children younger than three years of age developed gastroenteritis after visiting a local water park. These cases represented 44% of the park visitors in this age group on the day in question. Older individuals were not affected. The causative agent was determined to be a member of the bacterial genus Shigella. The disease resulted from oral transmission to the children.

Based only on the information given, can you classify this outbreak as an epidemic? Why or why not? If you were an epidemiologist, how would you go about determining which pools in the water park were contaminated?

 

This is a discussion. Does not need to be long. Cite all sources used

the role of the intestinal microbiota in the maintenance of health

Let’s discuss the role of the intestinal microbiota in the maintenance of health and the many opportunistic pathogens that cause disease when the delicate balance of normal microbiota in this region of the body is disturbed

Pathogenicity and Virulence in Organisms

Instructions

  • Write an essay comparing both pathogenicity and virulence among microorganisms. Provide examples.
  • Show how microorganisms vary in both their pathogenicity and virulence using the opportunistic infections as examples.
  • Show how these characteristics influence the prevention and treatment for public health.
  • Formulate at least two innovative solutions for reducing the spread of infection in personal life and in public.
