Answer:
Not all infectious disease terms are created equal, though often they’re mistakenly used interchangeably. The distinction between the words “pandemic,” “epidemic,” and “endemic” is regularly blurred, even by medical experts. This is because the definition of each term is fluid and changes as diseases become more or less prevalent over time.
While conversational use of these words might not require precise definitions, knowing the difference is important to help you better understand public health news and appropriate public health responses.
Let’s start with basic definitions:
AN EPIDEMIC is a disease that affects a large number of people within a community, population, or region.
A PANDEMIC is an epidemic that’s spread over multiple countries or continents.
ENDEMIC is something that belongs to a particular people or country.
AN OUTBREAK is a greater-than-anticipated increase in the number of endemic cases. It can also be a single case in a new area. If it’s not quickly controlled, an outbreak can become an epidemic.
COUNTER ARGUMENT: People are quite able of identifying the difference between a young child and an adult, so a uniform doesn't make a difference. They are also very boring.
RESPONSE: Some people are more developed in there younger years so appear more mature and older than they are. Yes uniform can be boring however it's there to keep you safe and not for your enjoyment.
In my opinion, out of the sentences offered here the one which best
shows how Dr Heidegger's character represents wisdom is D - 'If the
fountain gushed at my very doorstep, I would not stoop to bathe my lips I
it; no, though its delirium were for years instead of moments.' Here Dr
Heidegger is discussing the fountain of youth and how, although he can
admit he is tempted by it, he would be able to resist due to his wisdom
and powers of reasoning.
