AB Many  questions  on  the  USMLE  can  be  answered  by  knowing  the  meaning  of  the  epidemiologic  information  provided  in  the  case  description.  In  order  to  do  this,  the  student  should  know  the  reservoir  of  the  organism,  its  mode  of  transmission,  and  the  meaning  of  factors  such  as  travel,  occupation,  and  exposure  to  pets,  farm  animals,  or  wild  animals.  Knowledge  of  the  microbes  that  typically  cause  disease  in  individuals  with  specific  immunodeficiencies  will  also  be  helpful.
