- Within six months of effectively using methicillin to treatS. aureus infections in a community, all new S. aureus infectionswere caused by MRSA. How can this best be explained?(A) A patient must have become infected with MRSA fromanother community.(B) In response to the drug, S. aureus began making drugresistant versions of the protein targeted by the drug.(C) Some drug-resistant bacteria were present at the startof treatment, and natural selection increased theirfrequency.(D) S. aureus evolved to resist vaccinesThere have been recurring cases of mad-cow disease in the United Kingdom since the mid-1990s. Mad-cow disease is caused by a prion, an infectious particle that consists only of protein. In 1986, the media began reporting that cows all over England were dying from a mysterious disease. Initially, there was little interest in determining whether humans could be affected. For 10 years, the British government maintained that this unusual disease could not be transmitted to humans. However, in March 1996, the government did an about-face and announced that bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), commonly known as mad-cow disease, can be transmitted to humans, where it is known as variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). As in cows, this disease eats away at the nervous system, destroying the brain and essentially turning it into a spongelike structure filled with holes. Victims experience dementia; confusion; loss of speech, sight, and hearing; convulsions; coma; and finally death. Prion diseases are always fatal, and there is no treatment. Precautionary measures taken in Britain to prevent this disease in humans may have begun too late. Many of the victims contracted it over a decade earlier, when the BSE epidemic began, and the incubation period is long (vCJD has an incubation period of 10 to 40 years). A recent study concluded that 1 in 2,000 people in Great Britain carry the abnormally folded protein that causes vCJD. In spite of these numbers, the death rate from vCJD remains low. It is not clear whether this means that the incubation period for the disease is much longer than previously thought, or whether they may never develop the disease.

The weakened viruses could be injected into healthy individuals. How is this method effective in fighting viral diseases? O The immune system develops antibodies in response to the weakened viruses. O The rate of genetic mutation in the host is decreased due to the introduction of weakened viruses. O Weakened viruses are unable to enter the host organism. O The weakened viruses attach to unaffected viruses in the host and interrupt the viral reproductive cycle.How hand sanitizer can help us to keep our hand clean especially during COVID-19 pandemic?Please answer with yes or no with correcting the falte statement.

- The worldwide spread ofmultidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogenicbacteria has becomean urgent threat to human and animalhealth. More than two million people inthe United States become infected withantibiotic-resistant bacteria each year, andmore than 23,000 of them will die fromtheir infections. In 2015, approximately480,000 cases of MDR tuberculosisoccurred worldwide and another 100,000cases were resistant to at least one antibiotic.In the United States, cases of drugresistantenterobacteriaceae infectionsincreased three-fold between 2001 and2012. In 2016, a woman in Nevada died ofa Klebsiella pneumoniae infection caused bya strain that was resistant to 26 differentantibiotics, including colistin, which is consideredthe “last resort” antibiotic.One factor leading to the spread ofMDR bacteria is the selective pressurebrought about by repeated exposure toantibiotics. Worldwide, livestock consume used as feed supplements. The routineuse of antibiotics in livestock feed and theoveruse of human…CAN Corynebacterium diphtheriae be infected by a viruses.

THANK YOU.What actions described in the video do you think are similar to the COVID-19 threat today and why? What efforts by the government or other officials actually made the 1918 pandemic worse? Are any of these same actions occurring today? What is most shocking to you about the events described in the video about the 1918 pandemic? Are any of those shocking events now occurring in a similar way in response to COVID-19?
