10 Identify six infectious diseases and summarize their commonalities. Clearly explain the methods of transmission (maternal and fetus), risks to the fetus and infant, and treatment for each infection.
8 Identify six infectious diseases and summarize their commonalities. Somewhat clearly explain the methods of transmission (maternal and fetus), risks to the fetus and infant, and treatment for most of the infections.
6 Identify five to six of the infectious diseases and allude to their commonalities. Somewhat clearly explain the methods of transmission (maternal and fetus), risks to the fetus and infant, and treatment for some of the infections.
4 Identify three to five of the infectious diseases and allude to some of their commonalities. Unclearly explain the methods of transmission (maternal and fetus), risks to the fetus and infant, and treatment for some of the infections.
2 Identify zero to four of the infectious diseases and allude to some of their characteristics. Unclearly explain the methods of transmission (maternal and fetus), risks to the fetus and infant, and treatment for one or two of the infections.
