Questions 61-63 are based on the following information. The following equation is an epidemiological model for diseases such as measles or flu describing the factors that are expected to affect disease spread rate (R.) in a population: Ro = BS/Y B = the infection rate (describes how infectious a disease is); y = the recovery rate (describes how fast can an infected person recover); S = Population density of susceptibles (suscptibles are individuals without immunity to the specific pathogen) 61. What type of a model is this? Verbal a. b. Mathematical c. Statistical d. Simulation 62. According to this model, what is the effect of Population density of susceptibles on disease spread rate? a. Disease spread rate increases with increasing density b. Disease spread rate decreases with increasing density C. Disease spread rate is not affected by increasing density d. Impossible to know 63. According to this model what is the effect of host recovery rate on disease spread rate? a. Disease spread rate increases with increasing recovery rate b. Disease spread rate decreases with increasing recovery rate C. Disease spread rate is not affected by increasing recovery rate d. Impossible to know
