Steps of an Outbreak Investigation
Once the decision to conduct a field investigation of an acute outbreak has been made, working quickly is essential as is getting the right answer. In other words, epidemiologists cannot afford to conduct an investigation that is “quick and dirty.” They must conduct investigations that are “quick and clean. This means we would need to come up with a plan really quick to get the situation sustained and controlled.
Prepare for field work
Establish the existence of an outbreak
Verify the diagnosis
Construct a working case definition
Find cases systematically and record information
Perform descriiptive epidemiology
Develop hypotheses
Evaluate hypotheses epidemiologically
As necessary, reconsider, refine, and re-evaluate hypotheses
Compare and reconcile with laboratory and/or environmental studies
Implement control and prevention measures
Initiate or maintain surveillance
Communicate findings
As a field investigator, you must have the appropriate scientific knowledge, supplies, and equipment to carry out the investigation before departing for the field. Discuss the situation with someone knowledgeable about the disease and about field investigations, and review the applicable literature. In previous similar outbreaks, what have been the sources, modes of transmission, and risk factors for the disease? Assemble useful references such as journal articles and sample questionnaires.

Your Portfolio Project for this class is a Community Action Plan designed to alleviate or correct a public-health issue in your community. Your community can be your business, school, neighborhood, town or city of residence or birth, or county.
For option 1, your Community Action Plan will be a professional portfolio that includes a written report and a slide presentation.
Below are some useful sites where you can find examples of the elements of an action plan.

Research
Research Project
I would like you to do an individual project that you find interesting. Because this is a semester-long project, you have time to work with me to develop an idea, methods to complete the project, and then write an APA paper based on your hypothesized data. For this project, you will be responsible for developing an idea that you find interesting. You will have to develop the idea, find past research that is related to your idea, develop hypothetical methods, speculate what data you would find, and how you would interpret your data. You are required to write a full APA paper of your project, and have a minimum of 10 references, and a paper at least 10 pages in length. (Rough work also required)
Awero Osseni – Wednesday, January 12, 2022, 7:32 PM Number of replies: 0 The thymus ages more rapidly than any other tissue in the body, The thymus produces essential immune cells called T cells, which are continuously lost and must be replaced throughout life. The thymus gland is in the chest between the lungs. It makes white blood cells (T lymphocytes) which are part of the immune system and help fight infection. The thymus is a primary lymphoid organ essential for the development of T lymphocytes, which produces adaptive immune responses. The thymus produces all our T cells before we become teenagers. It gradually becomes less active and eventually gets smaller and is replaced by fat tissue. The thymus is an organ that is critically important to the immune system which serves as the body’s defense mechanism providing surveillance and protection against diverse pathogens, tumors, and mediators of tissue damage. The thymus is an essential part of the immune system. Without it, the immune system cannot function properly. The thymus is responsible for producing and maturing lymphocytes, or immune cells. These include T cells, a type of white blood cell that defends the body from infections. It is large in infants and young children, but it decreases in size after you reach puberty. By the time a person reaches early adulthood, fat has removed the tissues in the thymus. The size of the thymus is very small in older adults. To confirm the benefit of antioxidant protection, mice were provided with drinking water enhanced with the antioxidant nutrients vitamin C. In comparison with mice that received plain water, thymus glands from mice that received either nutrient were larger after ten weeks than those of control animals of the same age. Common dietary antioxidants may slow thymus atrophy and could represent a promising treatment strategy for protecting older adults from infections. Supplementation with vitamins C, E, and A can significantly improve certain immune responses. to support your thymus, it’s important to eat a diet rich in antioxidants. Healthandscience.eu. (n.d.).
