- Identify the following scenarios as either endemic, epidemic, or pandemic disease or classify descriptions as either primary, secondary, or tertiary prevention. Physical therapy for stroke patients Exercise to prevent obesity In 2009, the H1N1 strain of the flu spread to several countries Annual lung cancer screening among older adults who are long-term smokers Unvaccinated travelers to Mexico are at risk of contracting hepatitis A because of the regular presence of this disease in the area. A. Endemic B. Epidemic C. Pandemic D. Primary prevention E. Secondary prevention F. Tertiary preventionList five reasons for an increase in numbers of emerging infectious diseasesExplain what an emerging disease is and give an example.
- What factors influence the definitions of emerging or reemerging infectious diseases?What is major difference between an endemic disease and an epidemic?Write short explanatory notes on how change of lifestyles and modernization contribute to the spread of diseases under the following concepts/topics: through food production, ability to store food longer, increasingly domesticated animals, increased consumption of raw foods, the worldwide trade of agricultural products through food production: Here you should focus on how modern processes contribute to the spread of diseases. For example, Modern processes involved in food production increase the risk of food contamination with pathogenic microorganisms. This can come from machinery used for food processing or food handlers. The answer given should have sufficient points for marks allocated. Your explanations can be supported by examples of microorganisms or diseases. ability to store food longer: growth of microorganisms in food stored for extended period. Consider factors such as temperature fluctuation, poor packaging etc. increasingly domesticated animals: How an increase in…
