Question

The following choices list several types of diseases, along with factors that may contribute to their emergence.

Which disease and associated factor do NOT match?
a. spread of cholera to new regions;
b. modern travel emergence of avian influenza A (H5N1);
c. use of antibiotics increased incidence of malaria;
d. global warming increased incidence of Lyme disease;
d. increases in deer populations

Answer 1

Use of antibiotics increased incidence of malaria” do not seem be matching because malaria is a mosquito borne disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

• It can be transmitted only by the biting of mosquito; it is not even a communicable disease.

• So, by the use of antibiotics one cannot suffer from malaria. Antibiotics may cause side effects like vomiting, nausea and headache but the probability of getting malaria is zero.

• Malaria can be hazardous so, it is suggested to stay away from the places where mosquitoes are abundant.
