4. TRANSMISSION over large areas in a very short TIME can occur: MODERN TRANSPORT DEPENDENT of DISEASE PROPERTIES: TIME may lapse: 6/ 8 weeks OR much more before indication of the disease becomes obvious & diagnosis confirmed
5. OUTBREAK : a disease occurs more than expected in a time frame to a specific area EPIDEMIC : disease appears substantially more times than expected in a time frame at different locations – strains may vary. PANDEMIC : an outbreak is diagnosed over countries OR continent/s – strains may vary WHAT is AN (Wikipedia, 2008)

7. areas of the DNA contain ,codes, that would differ if it is not a certain strain HOW IT IS DONE: Different STRAINS of a disease can be identified by the use of their DNA This is called: TYPING METHOD (Wikipedia, 2008) process: HOW > disease has spread & it’s origin can be better determined
