, 1. chain of infection ANSWER infectious agent, reservoir, portal of exit, mode of transmis- sion, portal of entry,
susceptible host
2. Vehicle to Transmissions (8) ANSWER Direct Contact; Indirect Contact; Human Carrier; Airborne; Water Borne;
Food-Born; Vectors; Blood-Born
3. Single most useful and effective means of breaking chain of infection ANSWER Hand washing
4. What is the most frequent mode of disease transmission? ANSWER direct contact
5. Normal Cause of Infection ANSWER Phase 1 ANSWER Incubation period
Phase 2 ANSWER prodromal stage

subside
11. nosocomial infection ANSWER a disease acquired in a hospital or clinical setting
12. Potential reservoirs for pathogenic growth in clinical setting ANSWER IV Fluids Foods
