Order Description
You are provided with information pertaining to an outbreak in a group of nurseries in London. You should read the information carefully and then answer the given questions by
Write a report interpreting the data (see Case Study in uploaded file; OR open this link http://mdx.mrooms.net/pluginfile.php/341804/mod_resource/content/1/BIO4501%20case%20study) associated with a food borne outbreak to assess learning outcomes 1 and 2.
The Learning Outcomes Are:
1.Evidence a comprehensive understanding of the human anatomical and physiological systems and evaluate how health is affected by biological, chemical and physical stressors.
2.Explore and asses the impacts of food borne, zoonotic diseases and food related disorders, within a context of climate change
Questions to answer from the Case Study
1. Deduce the likely organism that caused the case justifying the reasons behind your choice?
2. How does the numerical data help to explain the outbreak?
3. Where were the failures in the food processing systems?
4. Explain the likely scenarios that lead to the outbreak and the pattern of cases presented?
Things to include
Justify the organisms: symptoms, contact, age group, chemical features, incubation time
Pathogens circles
Mode of transmission
Diseases, causes and effects
MARKING CRITERIAS
1. Ability to identify organism with appropriate supporting arguments.
2. Use the numerical data to explain the outbreak
3. Able to identify the failure of the process that leads to outbreak recognising underpinning scientific principles
4. Use of numerical data to support arguments
5. Evidence of appropriate reading to support study.
