Surgical amputation of an extremity with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) is an example in which
when a disease is present the treatment (amputation) is done to reduce the impact of disease by
preventing the tumor from dissemination. Vaccination for rotavirus for children younger than the
age of 1 year, sexual education program in elementary schools, and increasing taxes for buying
cigarettes represent examples of primary prevention. Screening for gestational diabetes after 24
weeks of pregnancy is an example of secondary prevention.

ANS: B
An epidemic is the occurrence of health-related events in a community or region, in clear excess
of normal expectation. Endemic is not true because it is defined as the constant occurrence of a
disease, disorder, or noxious infectious agent in a geographic area or population group. Pandemic
is not true because it is defined as an epidemic occurring over avery wide area, crossing
international boundaries, and usually affecting a large number of
people. Attack rate is not true because it is defined as number of people at risk in whom a
certain illness develops over total number of people at risk. Incubation period is not true
because it is the interval from receipt of infection to the time of onset of clinical illness (theonset
of recognizable symptoms).
2. What is the most accurate definition of the incubation period (of an infectious disease)?
a. The time of onset of clinical illness or the onset of recognizable symptoms
b. The interval from receipt of infection to the time of onset of clinical illness (the onset of
recognizable symptoms)
c. The time of invasion by an infectious agent
d. The time between initiation of infection and first shedding or excretion of the agent
e. The period between exposure and the onset of infectiousness
ANS: B
The incubation period is defined as the interval from receipt of infection to the time of onset of
clinical illness (the onset of recognizable symptoms); in other words, the time between the
moment of developing symptoms and the moment of invasion by an infectious agent. “The time
of onset of clinical illness or the onset of recognizable symptoms” is not true as it corresponds to
“time of onset.” “The time of invasion by an infectious agent” is not true as itcorresponds to “time
of infection.” “The time between initiation of infection and first shedding or excretion of the
agent” and “The period between exposure and the onset of infectiousness” are not true as they
correspond to the latent period. (The latent period is focusing on the onset of infectiousness, but
the incubation period is focusing on the onset of the symptom.)
