Case Study: The 1925 Diphtheria Outbreak and Balto’s Serum Run In January 1925, the town of Nome, Alaska, faced a deadly diphtheria outbreak during harsh winter conditions. With no serum available locally and sea routes frozen, officials organized the “Great Race of Mercy,” in which teams of sled dogs relayed antitoxin ampules over 600 miles. Balto, the lead dog during the final leg, delivered the lifesaving serum. Diphtheria is caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, a bacterium that transmits person-to-person primarily through respiratory droplets. The bacterium releases a potent exotoxin that inhibits host cell protein synthesis, leading to tissue damage. Local health officers reported that within the first three days of the outbreak, 15 new cases emerged in a town of 1,400 people, with 27 total active cases during that time. Isolation measures were quickly implemented to prevent further spread while the serum was transported. The initial outbreak source was traced to a child recently traveling from a neighboring settlement, who showed mild symptoms but was shedding the pathogen. Upon arrival, the antitoxin was administered immediately, neutralizing circulating toxin before it entered host cells. Because vaccines existed at the time but coverage in remote communities was low, the outbreak spread rapidly among children who had not been immunized. During the 1925 Nome outbreak, diphtheria spread primarily through which mode of transmission? [color1] The child who introduced the illness to Nome had mild symptoms but was shedding C. diphtheriae. This child is best described as a(n): [color2] The diphtheria toxin inhibits host cell protein synthesis. What type of virulence factor is this? [color3] In the first three days of the outbreak, 15 new cases appeared, and 27 total cases were active. These values represent which epidemiological measures? [color4] The diphtheria outbreak in Nome is best described as a(n): [color5] If C. diphtheriae evolved to frequently alter its toxin gene, reducing vaccine effectiveness, this would resemble which viral process? [color6]

Use the univ data frame that you have downloaded and read in to your R environment. The questions below are numbered A, and B, Please use those letters in your answers. That is Write A and start the answer for that question on the following line, and so on. Write R code to build a model with score as the response variable and hours_studied as the explanatory variable and to print the variances of the response variable and model values (4 points) What proportion of the variability in the response variable does the model explain? (2 points)

Use the “univ” data frame that you created based on the instructions. The function to compute the maximum is max and to compute the minimum is min. Write R code to compute the maximum score and minimum gpa. Your code should not list the entire dataset. It should just compute what we need. Name the columns as max_score and min_gpa and show the max score first and then min gpa.
