The CDC issues a statement saying that the zombie virus is infectious but not very contagious. What does this mean?
  1. Since the virus is not very contagious, it is also not very communicable
  2. The virus is caused by a microorganism
  3. The virus is capable of spreading between people
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: D - All of the above

Infectious diseases are caused by microorganisms like bacteria and viruses, and a contagious infectious disease is classified as communicable. Therefore a disease that is infectious but not very contagious is also not very communicable, but since it is contagious at all it can still spread between people, such as through direct bites.
