Question

All State governments have been asked to create awareness about the testing and prevention of widely spread swine flu and also to ensure that there are enough beds and medicines to treat any cases of this contagious disease.

Which of the following can be assumed from the given statement?

(I) H1N1 influenzas (or swine flu) is a highly contagious acute respiratory disease of pigs.

(II) Swine flu viruses do not normally infect humans.

(III) Even being contagious disease, the treatment of swine flu is possible.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The statement asks state governments to create awareness about testing and prevention of swine flu and to ensure availability of beds and medicines for treatment.

2. From this, we can infer that treatment for swine flu is possible because the statement explicitly mentions ensuring medicines and beds for treatment. Hence, (III) is implicit.

3. Statement (I) talks about swine flu being a highly contagious acute respiratory disease of pigs. The given statement does not mention anything about the cause or nature of the disease in pigs, so (I) cannot be assumed.

4. Statement (II) says swine flu viruses do not normally infect humans. The original statement mentions swine flu as a contagious disease affecting humans (since beds and medicines are to be ensured for treatment), so (II) contradicts the given information and cannot be assumed.

**Answer:** (b) Only III is implicit
