Q1.22. A higher population density, faster transmission rate, and longer infectious period each cause a disease like influenza to
spread to more people. Which of the following statements
correctly explain why?
Check all that apply:
At high densities, infected individuals encounter more individuals
who are also infected.
At high transmission rates, an infected-susceptible encounter is
more likely to result in an infection.
With long recovery, an infected individual is contagious longer and
can infect more susceptibles.

A) When the densities are high as a result of overcrowding,lack of sanitation exists and this will further lead to breeding ground for organisms that are responsible for causing disease that is causative agents for transmission that is environmentally mediated,as a result, infected individuals encounter more infected individuals.

B) Individuals that are infected and that are also susceptible have immune system that is weak than others hence when transmission is high,they tend not to get infected.

C) Yes,I will infer that provided that the individual that is infected us cured completely, however,the pathogen still exists within the system and can as such infect more susceptible individuals.
