The military basis are considered as ''ground zero'' for epidemic outbreaks because of the constant movement of the people. The soldiers are moved from one place to another regularly.

The diseases that are found in certain places in the world can be very easily transferred to them, and they will easily transfer the disease to their colleagues, to the people in another military base, or to the people back home, thus being the ones that spread out the disease and cause an epidemic of the same.

Which colonists wanted to fight the British for American independence? a. Loyalists c. Separatists b. Patriots d. Nationalists​
katen-ka-za [31]

The correct answer is B) Patriots.

The colonists who wanted to fight the British for American independence were Patriots.

In opposition to Loyalists who supported the presence of the British monarchy and the English government in the colonies, Patriots were American colonists that wanted independence from the British king.

Patriots were tired of the many injustices and heavy taxation imposed by the English government, as was the case of teh Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, the Tea Act, and many others.

Patriots were also furious that they had to pay taxes but had no voice or representation in the British Parliament. Indeed, all these were major causes for the beginning of the Revolutionary War of Independence.
