Discussion:
For the Discussion Board this week, you will pretend to be an epidemiologist working at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, GA. An outbreak of a food-borne illness has occurred, and it is your job to report this to the public. Have fun with this!
Here are the specific directions for the Module this week:
1). Research a specific pathogen that would be involved in an outbreak of a food-borne illness. For example: Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, Clostridium botulinum, Clostirdium perfringens, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, etc.
The following references (and many others) may be helpful.

2). Present your case study to the class. In your presentation, please include the following information:
Where and when your ‘outbreak’ occurred and how many cases have been reported
The specific food source that was linked to the outbreak
The specific pathogen responsible for this outbreak
How was this pathogen identified as the cause of this outbreak?
5. The morphology of the organism: What is the Gram stain result?
The signs and symptoms that would be seen in the patient as a result of this infection
What the public needs to know about how this infectious disease can be treated and prevented
Options for presentation:
1. Post a 3-5 minute video of your announcement. Make a 3-5 minute video informing the public about this
outbreak and how to prevent it. For this video, you can use your own technology and upload the file to your
discussion board site or you can create this right in your discussion board response. To do this, click on the
‘Reply’ tab in your discussion board. Click on the ‘film’ icon on the tool bar. Create and save your video.
2. Create Prezi presentation or a Powerpoint presentation including all of the required information.
3. Remember that you must include at least 2 scientific references in correct APA format.
3). Review your peers’ presentations and have fun responding to at least 2 of these. Please add some information
about the specific pathogens discussed in order to have a more meaningful discussion.
