LESSON 5.4: COMMUNICABLE DISEASE Module 5: Public Health Obj. 5.4: Differentiate between communicable and noncommunicable disease.

Do Now: Picture This  1. Describe the people in the image? What do you notice that might be different from normal?  2. Why do you think some of these people are wearing surgical masks?  3. Would this be a common sight in the United States? Why or why not?

Discuss: Under the Weather  Think about the last time you were sick and discuss the following questions with a partner. What were your symptoms? Do you know what kind of illness you had? If so, what was it? If not, why didn’t you know? How did you get sick?

Communicable vs. Noncommunicable

Infectious Diseases at School  Read the CDC fact sheet entitled, “Infectious Diseases at School”  1. What is one of the major negative effects of infectious disease among school-aged children?  2. Why do infectious diseases spread so easily in schools?  3. What can schools do to prevent the spread of infectious diseases?  4. What is one major cause of foodborne illness?  5. Approximately what percentage of the U.S. population acquires the seasonal flu each year?  6. What is one of the BEST ways to keep from getting sick and spreading infectious illnesses?  7. How should one cough or sneeze in order to best prevent spread of infection?

Noncommunicable Diseases in School  What common illnesses or conditions occur in school- aged children that are noncommunicable?

Communicable or Noncommunicable?

Assess:  Identify one communicable disease and one noncommunicable disease and explain one possible way they are transmitted or acquired. (Note: Do not use any illnesses already provided as examples in this lesson.)  One communicable disease is ______________, which is transmitted by...  One noncommunicable disease is ___________, which is transmitted by...

Homework:  Challenge: Determine what illness-related absence policies exist in schools and daycares.  Directions: Choose one location besides your own school (e.g., a daycare, preschool, elementary, high school, or university). Ask permission to interview a school official about the policies (ensure they know your goals and purpose).  What policies exist regarding communicable disease?  When do students need to go home?  When are they allowed back? Is a doctor’s note or parent note required?  What illnesses are most commonly seen among children in this institution?  Are illness-related absences tracked? If so, how many absences on average, does each child have per year due to illness? (An estimate is okay if data is not available).  Are these policies formally written and distributed among students and parents or kept informally?  What challenges or problems does the school face regarding infectious illnesses?  Are there any policies or requirements regarding proof of immunizations?  Would you recommend changes to any of the school policies?
