Essential Question:
EQ: What role to humans play in how microbes are
transmitted?
LT: Students will be able to describe how viruses,
bacteria, fungi and parasites are spread.
POU:I can analyze data in a Infectious disease
scenario and determine the “index case”

Vaccine – substance entered in the body to produce immunity
(prevent getting sick)
Antibiotic – medicines used to kill or slow growth in bacteria that
cause disease
Anti viral- Medicines used to treat a virus once a person is sick but
must be given with a few days of exposure.
Epidemic – illness or health-related issue that is showing up in more
cases than would normally be expected. (Ex: Malaria)
Pandemic – wide spread (usually worldwide) outbreak of an
infectious disease (Ex: Influenza)

Think about it….
 Fill in the bubbles with 8
people you have come in
contact with today (even if
only a handshake).
 Think about how many
possible people each
person has also come in
contact with.
 In this lab activity, you will simulate the spread of an
undiagnosed virus through your class. At first, only one
person in the class will be infected with the virus. That
person, the “index case,” will be unaware that he or
she is infected, which is often the case in reality. You will
be given a cup containing a clear fluid that will represent
your body fluid. You will exchange your body fluid with
three other people in the class. At the end of the activity,
you will test your simulated fluid for the presence of the
virus and identify the original infected person, “patient
zero.”
Step 1:
Write down your cup number
on Table 1
Step 2:
Pick a table partner to
exchange with.
Write down that person’s
name and # on Table 1
Step 3:
 Pour one cup into the other, then pour
half of the liquid back into the first cup.

Step 5:
