Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
During the incubation period, the infectious agent reproduces, but there are no recognizable symptoms. The immune system has not overcome the organism in this stage and blood levels are low but rising.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
This nurse has committed a breach of duty, which is an offense under civil law. It is unlikely that this constitutes a criminal offense. Statutory law and common law do not address such events that involve an act between two individuals.
