The provider must document any feasible outbreaks to the Ministry of Health so that the trouble may be resolved quickly. Epidemiologists are involved to study cell function and better understand the situation. By examining where it happened (the scene), who they spoke to (collecting all sorts of information from people they might encounter or come into contact with, etc.), they can understand. All activities must be recognized to act. Come up with a answer or treatment. They are all working together to get faster results and stop the spread of the outbreak. 4. Identify three questions that Dr. Greenberg and Dr. Pellitteri asked the patients. Explain why these three questions were relevant. These questions can help health care providers better understand the situation, access it quickly, and save lives. We want to understand all sorts of statistics to deal with and heal the affected person that are there. 5. Identify three questions that the epidemiologists asked the Eclipse Cafeteria employees. Explain why these three questions were relevant. Epidemiologists questioned the Cafeteria personnel about proper hand hygiene practices, the preparation of the meal, and the ingredients used.
