Why is it important for a patient to finish an entire prescription of an antibiotic? To prevent delayed allergic reactions To decrease chances of the organism becoming resistant to antibiotics To decrease chances of the person becoming resistant to antibiotics Question 2 What is the risk of saving part of a prescription and giving it to a friend that is sick? They could have an allergic reaction to the medication Not finishing the complete course of antibiotics contributes to bacterial resistance The illness may be viral and not require antibiotics The medication could be past its expiration date All the choices are correct;

1. Place the following foodborne causative agents in order from least to most virulent according to their infectious dose? Escherichia coli (EHEC), ID50 = 10 Hepatitis A, ID50 = 10-100 Norovirus, ID50 = 1-10 Staphylococcus aureus, ID50 = 100,000-8,000,000 Giardia lamblia, ID50 = 1 Listeria monocytogenes, ID50 = 1,000 2. Provide four reasons why S. aureus (ID50 = 100,000-8,000,000) has such a large ID50 range. (Hint: think about factors that can affect a microbe's overall virulence)
