Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Hepatitis is transmitted through blood and body fluids.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The transmission of infections by vectors is rarely associated with nosocomial infections. In the hospital, instruments and equipment (through fomites) are common sources of hospital-acquired infections. Direct contact is also a common way to transmit nosocomial infections.
