Discussion
Consider the following statements and comment on their respective falsity/truth:
1. Out of Polio, Rabies, Influenza and Diptheria, Diptheria is not a viral disease.
2. Out of Malaria, Dengue, Kala-azar and Polio, Kala-azar is not covered under National vector borne disease control programme (NVBDCP)
3. Out of Tuberculosis, Diabetes, HIV/AIDS and Influenza, Diabetes is not an example of infectious disease.
Code: 1 2 3
Answer: C
The statements are True, False, True.
1. True: diphtheria is caused by the bacterium Corynebacterium diphtheriae, while polio, rabies and influenza are viral.
2. False: kala-azar is covered by the National Vector Borne Disease Control Programme, along with malaria, dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis and lymphatic filariasis. The odd one out is polio, which is not vector-borne.
3. True: diabetes is a non-communicable disease, while tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS and influenza are infectious.
So only option c, True False True, fits.
