Rats

[1 mark]

(b) A notice as shown below is put up at a recreational area.

NOTICE
Public is strictly not allowed into this recreational area
This area is infected by leptospirosis
This area is not safe for public

Give reason why leptospirosis disease can spread in the recreational area
- Food waste thrown everywhere at the recreational park attract rats to the area
because the waste is their food source. Therefore, more vectors are present in
the area.
- Recreational area is a public area, which means it is visited by many people at
one time. Thus, the spreading of leptospirosis is fast and wide

[2 mark]

(c) Suggest a way to prevent the spread of leptospirosis disease.
