One treatment for peanut allergies is to give an allergic child increasing doses of the peanut allergen proteins, starting at a very low level and progressing to higher concentrations, stopping if any reaction occurs. Such treatments are usually successful, but at least one death has been reported. Would you agree to treat your allergic child this way? What are the risk-benefit considerations?

A researcher is conducting an experiment testing whether a new pharmaceutical drug is able to effectively treat heartburn and has a physician assisting with the study involving volunteers who experience chronic heartburn. Which of the following descriptions most closely describes the control used in this study? Show answer choices The researcher has organized the patients into 4 groups, where patients either take 1 dose of the drug, 2 doses of the drug, 1 dose of the placebo, or 2 doses of the placebo. The physician asks patients to rate their heartburn discomfort on a scale from 1-10 every 5 minutes up to an hour. The physician and patients both do not know if they are receiving the actual drug or a placebo. The placebo pill contains just compressed sugar and no active drug. Patients are randomly selected and placed into the four categories.

Pathogen A has an ID50 of 10 cells and an LD50 of 10,000,000 cells. Pathogen B has an ID50 of 10,000 cells and an LD50 of 20,000 cells. From this information, we can determine that: ○ Pathogen A has higher infectivity but lower virulence than Pathogen B. ○ Pathogen A has lower infectivity but higher virulence than Pathogen B. ○ Pathogen B has higher infectivity but lower virulence than Pathogen A. ○ Pathogen B has higher infectivity and higher virulence than Pathogen A.
