"The world is full of amateur doctors who think"
they know the sure cure for eveithing.
Most of these sidewalk physicians, however, dis
pense overdoses of misinformation. Are you one of
them? Dr. Margaret Lieb of Brandeis University sug
gests this test to find out how much you know about
the virus, smallest enemy of man. If you miss more
than three, better go back to pre-med school.
True False
1. A virus is so small it can't be seen under
a microscope.
2. Ten thousand viruses can fit on a pin-
head.
3. A virus is a complete cell capable of
supporting itself.
4. A virus is a tiny envelope of protein
containing bad genes.
5. Viruses reproduce faster than bacteria.
6. Any virus can attack any body cell.
7. Measles, influenza, the common cold, and
encephalitis are a few of the hundreds of
virus diseases.
8. Human skin is a natural protection
against viruses.
9. Viruses prefer to live and multiply in
sick body cells.
10. A virus can survive indefinitely in the Q
open air.
11. Few of us must ever battle viruses.
12. When the body has produced anti-
bodies to fight off the usual viruses in our
environment, we are then safe from any
invading virus. 1
13. Certain viruses can kill bacteria that
cause disease.
14. Scientists have not yet isolated indi-
vidual virus particles for study.
ANSWERS
1. Folse. Under the usual light microscope a single
particle of virus is invisible, but it can be seen readily
with an electron microscope.
2. False. There is room for 1,000,000. One sneeze can
release billions of virus particles into the air.
3. Folie. A -virus is the most complete parasite in
existence. It must feed on living cells.
4. True. This envelope enters the body through
nose, mouth, or intestine. It attaches to a normal body
cell where it sets up a factory and assembles from
50 to 2,000 new envelopes just like the original virus.
These viruses then escape and attack new cells.
5. Tn. Viruses reproduce faster than any. other
known thing.
6. False. Viruses are usually very specific. Polio
virus thrives only on nerve cells; hepatitis virus on
liver cells; pneumonia virus on lung cells, etc.
7. True.
