22
Q

Goal of herd immunity

enough people being vaccinated that the likelihood of an infected individual coming in contact with a susceptible individual is low

23
Q

Indicators of disease someone else can measure

A

signs (fever, vomiting)

24
Q

Indicators of disease that other people can’t see/measure

A

symptoms ( headache, nausea, fatigue)

25
Q

Process of combing signs and symptoms to find the most likely cause of an illness

A

differential diagnosis

26
Q

Type of infection where the pathogen invades on its own

A

primary infection

27
Q

Type of infection where the pathogen needs a deficiency in the innate immune system to invade the host

A

opportunistic infection

28
Q

Type of infection that takes advantage of conditions created by an initial infection by another pathogen

A

secondary infection

29
Q

term for bacteria growing in the blood stream

A

septicemia

30
Q

inflammatory response to septicemia that results in organ failure

A

sepsis

31
Q

Multiplication of a microbe in a host producing inflammation in the infected tissue

A

infection

32
Q

what is the result of most infections in a healthy individual

A

the immune system response with strong resistance and the individual is unaware of the infection

33
Q

A tissue/ organ in damaged due to strong prescence of a pathogen and/or low immune response

A

disease

34
Q

order of stages in disease progression:

A

Incubation Period > Prodromal Phase > Acute Period > Period of Decline > Period of Convalescence

35
Q

what is the 7 step program for pathogens invading hosts?

A

1) Establish recevoir
2) Transport to host
3) Breach host barriers
4) Evade destruction
5) Multiply
6) Damage the host
7) Leave the host (acute) or stay (chronic)

36
Q

degree to which a pathogen is capable of causing disease

A

virulence

37
Q

Example of a highly virulent pathogen

A

rabies

38
Q

Example of a moderately virulent pathogen

A

cold, flu

39
Q

structure/molecule a pathogen has that increases its ability to invade/cause disease in a host

A

virulent factor

40
Q

Degrees of virulence depends on:

A

If it’s the right host for the pathogen
the host immunity
