Q1. Lomoki received a request to prepare smears from a tobe of ETA micosgated blood. The specimen was collected at 7 AM, and she prepared the smears at 7:30 AM. She allowed the smears to dry in the rack and processed several specimens as well as one test. A 11:30 AM she stained the smears and observed one under the microscope. She was surprised by the appearance of the smears the cells had bizarre morphology, and many of the red cells appeared moth-eaten. a.

17-year-old female high school student became ill during the first week back at school in September with a fever. Her parents did not take her to the doctor when she became ill because they thought it was just the flu. However, the parents brought her into the emergency room when she developed a high fever, vomited, and became incoherent and difficult to arouse. If the exam and lab results were as follows: Temperature: 103.9°F (39.5°C), Physical exam: Some stiffness in the neck and no red spots observed, CSF WBC Cell count of 600 WBCs/αL with 14% polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) and 86% lymphocytes, and 10 RBCs/αL. Microscope Gram stain: No bacteria or fungi observed; a few white blood cells. Culture: No growth of bacteria. Viral encephalitis antigen screens: Negative for all tested.

Four different clinical isolates of the Gram-positive bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus, are tested for their abilities to resist innate immune defense mechanisms. For these experiments, each bacterial strain is first grown in culture to achieve log-phase replication, and then cultures are supplemented with dilutions of human serum containing normal serum proteins as well as antibodies capable of binding to S. aureus. One hour later, the cultures are analyzed and the numbers of live bacteria are quantitated. The data from this experiment are shown in Figure Q9. Figure Q9 From these data, what general conclusions can be reached about the four strains of S. aureus?

A pregnant 18-year-old woman came to the Ford County urgent care clinic with a low-grade fever, malaise, and headache. She was sent home with a diagnosis of influenza. She again sought treatment 7 days later with a macular rash on her trunk, arms, hands, and feet. Further questioning of the patient when serology results were known revealed that 1 month previously, she had a painless ulcer on her vagina that healed spontaneously. (1) What is the disease and the stage? (2 marks) (2) What is the pathogen of this disease and its major transmission route? (2 marks) (3) What serologic tests are used to diagnose the infection? (Brief descriptions are required) (4 marks) (4) What are the consequences of not treating this infection? (2 marks)
