Question 1
Which of the following is a condition which may occur during the incubation
period?
• Onset of clinical illness
• Receipt of infection
• Signs and symptoms of disease
• Transmission of infection
• Isolation of disease carrier through quarantine
Rationale :The incubation period is defined as the interval from receipt of
infection to the time of onset of clinical illness. Accordingly, individuals may

Question 2
Chicken pox is a highly communicable disease. It may be transmitted by direct

• Disease was endemic in the class
The disease is spread by contact with an infected individual who can transmit the
agent (VZV) to immunologically naive persons during the incubation period and for
several days after onset of clinical illness. Since the boy started school 14 days after
showing signs consistent with chicken pox, it is most likely that he was no longer
infectious.
