In this scenario the needle stick is the portal of entry in the chain of transmission. The susceptible host is Felicia, the infectious agent is the blood of the patient on the needle, the needle stick is the portal of entry because it is how the infection entered Felicia, the reservoir is the patient (the host) as that is where the infection lives and the portal or exit would be the vein of the host (where the infection is located).

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Edward II was a play written by Christopher Marlowe, who was also a great influencer of the Elizabethan writers during and after his time. The play depicts a homosexual relationship between King Edward II of England and the 1st Earl of Cornwall, Piers Gaveston.

The statement that Edward II was written by Marlowe as a way of honoring the memory of William Shakespeare after his death is false as Marlowe died before Shakespeare. While Shakespeare died in 1616, Marlowe was killed in 1593. The play Edward II was entered into the Stationer's Register some five weeks after the death of Marlowe.
