-With an indirect ELISA, it tests not for the antigen, but antibodies against the antigen, does a positive test then mean the person currently has the disease in question? If not, what does a positive
-How long did it take for the disease to disappear on the vaccinated side for D.C.?
- Make a hypothesis on why the 80% vaccinated side of D.C. Eventually saw the disease begin to slow down? About how many days did it take to slow down?
- How does each side compare to D.C.?
- Hickory has a population of about 40,000 people & D.C. Has about 630,000 people. What does this tell you about how population density affects disease spread?
- How does New York city compare to D.C & Hickory? Explain why you think that is the case.
- Using what you've learned by seeing these simulations & given that measles & covid-19 are both airborne proximity diseases, why are all the governors capping the size of gatherings?
- For a blood borne (or STD) based disease like that simulated with the ELISA part of this lab, would limiting the size of gatherings be as effective at stopping the spread of those diseases? Explain.
