1.1.1.
In this section we brain stormed in pairs of 3's about what we though were medical interventions, we then wrote them down on sticky notes and shared with the rest of the class our ideas. I learned that apparently alcohol and condoms are medical interventions.
1.1.2.
At the beginning of this section we met the Smith family and began studying Sue Smith (the oldest daughter). We also learned about the outbreak on the college campus where Sue is attending. We began making the connections between the different students who were sick and thinking of a diagnosis.
1.1.3.
During this section we learned more about Sue and the outbreak while also meeting new patients that have fallen ill. We learned through a DNA sequencing test that Sue has meningitis and has passed it to friends but we do not know who all she has infected.
1.1.5.
In this section we learned about and performed an ELISA test. We also learned about how to do a serial dilution. The ELISA was ran to see how long Sue has had it and if any of the other patients have it. We learned that Sue contracted it first then passed it to Jill and Marco. Jill then passed it to Maria.
1.1.6.
Finally during this section we learned the final facts about Anthony, Wanda, Maggie, Arnie, and possibly Alvin. We diagnosed them and thought of treatments for everyone and how to stop the outbreak. We also learned that Alvin didn't want any samples taken but met up with Wanda after he left the clinic and they had coffee.
