Question

Collaborators necessary to solve and control a human epidemic include
A) epidemiologists.
B) ecologists.
C) veterinarians.
D) scientists.
E) epidemiologists, ecologists, veterinarians, and scientists.

Accepted Answer

All of the collaborators mentioned (epidemiologists, ecologists, veterinarians, and scientists) bring unique expertise and perspectives to understanding and controlling a human epidemic. Epidemiologists focus on understanding the distribution and spread of disease, ecologists can provide insight into how environmental factors may contribute to disease transmission, veterinarians can identify animal reservoirs or hosts of the disease, and scientists can develop treatments and vaccines to combat the disease. Collaborative efforts that involve all of these parties have been successful in controlling and eradicating diseases like smallpox and polio.
