Infectious Disease Vocab 17 1. Infectious Disease – disease caused by the presence of a

living thing in the body.2. Pathogen – a microbe that causes disease in an

organism3. Carrier – a PERSON with a disease that they can pass on

to other organisms4. Vector – an ANIMAL or INSECT that carries and

transmits a disease5. Vaccine – substance entered in the body to produce

immunity (prevent getting sick)6. Antibiotic – medicines used to kill or slow growth in

bacteria that cause disease7. Anti viral- Medicines used to treat a virus once a person is

sick but must be given with a few days of exposure. 8. Epidemic – illness or health-related issue that is showing

up in more cases than would normally be expected. (Ex: Malaria)

9. Pandemic – wide spread (usually worldwide) outbreak of an infectious disease (Ex: Influenza)

Infection Disease

SimulationNotebook page 17

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 4: Step 5:

Go to another part of the room.

Find a person to exchange with

Write down their number 1st

Pour one cup into the other

Pour half of the liquid back into the first cup

Go to another part of the room.

Find a person to exchange with

Write down their number 1st

Pour one cup into the other

Pour half of the liquid back into the first cup

Return to your seat
