Asked in Premeth Test 19 — SolidsModerate

Statement: Every year, at the beginning or at the end of the monsoons, we have some cases of conjunctivitis, but this year, it seems to be a major epidemic, witnessed after nearly four years.Courses of Action:I. Precautionary measures should be taken after every four years to check this epidemic.II. People should be advised to drink boiled water during rainy season.

Correct answer: D. Neither I nor II follows

  • A. Only I follows
  • B. Only II follows
  • C. Either I or II follows
  • D. Neither I nor II follows
  • E. Both I and II follow

Explanation

The correct answer is that neither I nor II follows. The issue of conjunctivitis arises annually, not just every four years, rendering the first course of action ineffective. Additionally, drinking boiled water is a preventive measure for waterborne diseases, not for an eye infection like conjunctivitis. Therefore, neither proposed course of action is logically sound in addressing the epidemic.
