I got a 95% on this

A) One environmental factor that is typically present and required for the spread of infectious disease on an epidemic or pandemic scale is human migration, as it helps spread diseases that may have been isolated in a particular area to many other areas. The author mentions this in the last paragraph, “When Europeans colonized the Americas, smallpox followed. When soldiers fought in the first global war, influenza hitched a ride, and found new opportunities in the unprecedented scale of the conflict.” This shows that when people moved from place to place, diseases were more easily spread. When you look at previous epidemics and pandemics, and even the pandemic currently going on, one thing is always present: the disease was originally isolated in a single area, and then was later spread through migration.

B) One specific example of a 20th-century health epidemic that encouraged technological advancement was the cholera outbreak in the Romanian Army in 1913. This encouraged technological advancement, as it was within the army during the Second Balkan War, and having an outbreak in the middle of that was very dangerous. As a result, vaccines were quickly produced, systems were put in place that would prevent the spread, the infected were isolated, as well as several other procedures. That is just one of many examples of technological advancements made to stop epidemics.

C) One specific example of why the optimism of Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet and George Marshall may have been misplaced is because in the end, vaccines only HELP manage the danger to a person, but there’s not a 100% chance of it eradicating it. Also, vaccines can evolve into new strains, ones that vaccines and the human immune system are not prepared for, so simply saying that infectious diseases are something of the past is ignoring that fact. Infectious diseases can come out of seemingly nowhere, so just because the current pandemic is taken care of, that does not mean that it is gone for good.

What were characteristics of settled communities in the neolithic era?

ehidna [41]

One of the most momentous developments in human history was the domestication of plants, which we now call as agriculture, and animals, known as pastoralism, and the rise of permanent settlements in place of nomadic tribes. This era is known as the Neolithic Age.

The main distinguishing characteristic is the relocation of civilization in river valleys. The rich soil alongside the banks of the rivers was the perfect breeding ground for the developing technological advances in pastoralism and agriculture. These civilizations were also larger groupings of permanent abodes.

Around 3000 B.C, the Neolithic people discovered the process for creating bronze tools and weapons, and canal systems that could drain the massive floods that sometimes broke the river banks. The building of this canal system would have required organization and cooperation among people on a massive scale, which most likely lead to a system of government.

As the productivity of agriculture, less people were needed to work in the fields. These people who weren't needed to farm then become artisans, or merchants or traders and production of all sorts was able to increase, thereby providing a better standard of living for all. Religiously, the people in the Neolithic Age began believing in an afterlife.

Somehow, Neolithic people learned how to plant and raise crops and keep and raise livestock for food. Now people were put in the situation of living together permanently and as a result much cooperation was needed for survival and civilizations with government systems and skilled artisans and merchants started to rise.
