Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A Incorrect. In the case of chickenpox, the child is contagious before the skin lesions erupt.
B Correct. Many children may remain asymptomatic but are able to transmit pathogens before they become ill. For example, children exposed to the varicella virus, which causes chickenpox, are contagious the day prior to becoming ill.
C Incorrect. Not every child coming in contact with the child with chickenpox will develop chickenpox, hence there is not need for quarantine.
D Incorrect. Not every child coming in contact with the child with chickenpox will develop chickenpox, hence the doctor does not need to see and evaluate all the children who were in the office and exposed.

Answer to Question 2

Feedback
