Question 29
The Schick Skin Test is a diagnostic test specifically designed to detect susceptibility to diphtheria. Tetanus has other diagnostic methods, tuberculosis is detected by tests like Mantoux (not Schick), and polio has its own diagnostic approaches. So the correct option is Diphtheria.
The Mantoux Skin Test (also known as the tuberculin test) is primarily used to diagnose tuberculosis. Leprosy has different diagnostic tests, diphtheria is detected by the Schick test, and AIDS has specific serological tests. So the correct option is Tuberculosis.
