Explain Zoonotic and Vector-Borne Diseases

. State three ways in which diseases can spread along with an example.

An epidemic may be detected by observing clustered cases of certain symptoms the extent of morbidity and mortality the rate of hospitalization the extent to which associates wash their hands

Describe opportunistic infections

Differentiate among the arthropod vectors of disease.

Describe the epidemiology and pathology of rhinovirus andcalicivirus infections.

The vertical transmission of certain communicable diseases from mother-to-child during pregnancy and birth is of great concern to public health practitioners because it represents a critical period for intervention. If practitioners can determine at birth whether the disease has been transmitted from mother-to-child, they can act immediately to provide the child with treatment. Syphilis is a disease with high risk for vertical transmission from mother-to-child. If a child becomes infected and is not treated, there can be negative health outcome such as blindness, deafness, and neurological damage. Inspired by the advent of rapid HIV tests that provide quick results and are minimally invasive, suppose that researchers have been working to develop a similar test that can be used for syphilis. After obtaining appropriate institutional approval and patient consent, the researchers test their rapid syphilis test at several birthing hospitals and compare it to the gold standard laboratory…

I believe is portals of exit because is the route by which an infectious aent leaves the host.
