1. All of the following are correct about Staphylococcus aureus, EXCEPT:

most strains are resistant to penicillin and ampicillin

it causes furuncles, carbuncles, and abscesses.

it is the coagulase-positive species

it is a common cause of strep throat

2. Acanthamoeba is NOT

a cause of keratitis

entering typically through broken skin or the conjunctiva

acquired by swimming in contaminated water

a heleminth

3. Fifth disease is normally

treated intensively with intravenous antibiotics

treated with topical antibiotic ointments

prevented through vaccination

allowed to resolve without treatment

4. The skin is an effective barrier against many pathogens. All the following describe ways that pathogens penetrate the skin EXCEPT for which one?

Helminths may burrow into the skin, creating their own paths to deeper tissues

Microbes may enter the body through skin that has been damaged, allowing them to reach deeper tissues

The loa loa worm enters the bloodstream through the bite of the deerflies that carry it

Bacteria on the surface of the skin often gradually consume the epidermis and dermis, creating a pathway to deeper parts of the body

5. All of the following are correct about Streptococcus pyogenes, EXCEPT

it causes scalded skin syndrome

humans are the only significant reservoir

some of the streptococcal toxins act as superantigens

infection is generally through direct contact

4.   John is a 16-year-old who loves to play soccer. His 18-year-old brother, Andre, passed out while playing basketball and has now been diagnosed with long QT syndrome (LQT1). The cardiologist involved suggests that all Andre’s siblings should have a cardiac examination, including an electrocardiogram (ECG), before they play sports. John’s ECG shows a borderline QT prolongation during activity, so the cardiologist recommends genetic testing. John tests positive for the same mutation in the gene KCNQ1 (LQT1) that Andre has, and he is told that he must stop playing soccer. He is counseled to take up a less intense sport, like golf. John is clearly upset and wants to know why this is happening to him. He feels just fine and does not understand why he cannot play his favorite sport.
A.   What is the connection between sports restrictions and Long QT syndrome
B.   How can understanding the genetics help to predict who might be affected by Long QT syndrome if someone in the family is already affected.
C.   How and in what terms will you explain to John why these modifications in exercise are necessary
