Note: The epidemiology quiz has five questions. Each has two options one true and other false.

Question 1:- What is exponential growth

A-Exponential growth is a specific way that a quantity may increase over time. It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself

B-It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change of a quantity with respect to time is only a non-zero constant.

Question 2-The doubling time of a spread of a virus implies the time

A-The doubling time is the time it takes for a population of the virus to reduce to half in size/value.

B- The doubling time is the time it takes for a population of the virus to double in size/value. It is applied to population growth or a virus spread.

Question 3:-The flattening of curve with reference to epidemics implies

A-Flattening the curve means slowing the spread of the epidemic so that the peak number of people requiring care at a time is reduced, and the health care system does not exceed its capacity

B-Flattening the curve is a form of indirect protection from infectious disease that occurs when a large percentage of a population has become immune to an infection

Question 4:-This term herd immunity implies

A-Herd immunity means slowing the spread of the epidemic so that the peak number of people requiring care at a time is reduced, and the health care system does not exceed its capacity

B-Herd immunity is a form of indirect protection from infectious disease that occurs when a large percentage of a population has become immune to an infection

Question 5- Morbidity and co-morbidity together implies

A-The presence of one or more ailments other than the disease of more interest such as whether the patient has COVID-19 positive or not.
