Imagine you work in the infectious disease department of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Recently, an unknown emerging disease has begun to spread in the United States that seems to show symptoms similar to influenza and measles. Not all people infected show all the symptoms, and current vaccinations do not prevent a person from catching the unknown disease. Apply the knowledge you know now about infectious agents and means of transmission. For this assignment: Provide a brief overview...

1.A research group is investigating the potential infectious nature of a disease. From ulcerative skin lesions in mice they were able to grow as pure cultures a Gram negative microorganism. They inoculated this microorganism into the skin of healthy mice and reproduced the same ulcerative skin lesions. According to the Koch’s postulated these experimental evidences are sufficient to confirm that the Gram negative microorganism is the causative agent of the studied disease. (T/F) 2. Exotoxins can cause tissue damage during...
