Why is it important to calculate disease rates to report disease outbreaks accurately?
Step by step
Solved in 3 steps
- If an epidemiologist is studying a new disease, or one that is beginning to emerge, would incidence or prevalence data be more useful? Why?In comparison to pandemics, which make it difficult to estimate the number of individuals infected or actually killed by the outbreak, as an endemic outbreak occurs, the epidemic progresses at a more manageable rate. Please explain with examplesPlease provide an example of a water-borne disease outbreak. Where did it occur? How many people were impacted?
- What is the economic threshold for disease controlWhy is it important for healthcare professionals in the United States maintaining current knowledge of diseases and/or outbreaks affecting other countries.What is the difference between a common source and a propagated source epidemic outbreak? Which would you rather investigate and why? Provide an example of each.
- Why do epidemiologists acquire population-based data aboutinfectious diseases?What are the similarities and differences between airborne and direct disease transmission? Discuss the vehicles and methods for transmission prevention.What common sources of infectious disease are found in your community? How can the etiologic agents of such infectious diseases spread from their source or reservoir to members of your community?
- You were recently hired as an epidemiologist at a county office. List and explain three measures that you would use to calculate a specific disease situation. In your view, why is it difficult to get accurate information about disease status in a population?Why is Alzhemier's disease the 6th leading cause of death in the United States right now?What measures can be taken to decrease the current incidenceof pertussis in a population?
