multiple choice 1 point
how many people die every year from food poisoning?
350 people
3,500 people
35,000 people
350,000 people

Explanation:

• First question: Basic hygiene measures (like hand - washing, covering coughs) are fundamental in preventing the spread of many infectious diseases as they can remove or block pathogens. Antibiotics are for treating bacterial infections (not prevention in most cases), waiting for vaccines is not proactive for immediate prevention, and becoming a vegetarian has no direct link to preventing most infectious disease spread.
• Second question: According to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, approximately 351,000 people die each year from foodborne diseases. Among the given options, 350,000 is the closest.

Answer:

• First question: Basic hygiene measures
• Second question: 350,000 people
