How could the doctors tell if the disease was food borne airborne or transmitted person to person?
Doctors can determine the mode of transmission by analyzing patterns in infection spread, patient histories, and symptom onset. Foodborne illnesses often correlate with recent meals or specific food sources, while airborne diseases typically show rapid spread among individuals in close proximity. Person-to-person transmission is indicated by direct contact or shared environments among infected individuals. Laboratory tests and epidemiological studies further help clarify the source of the outbreak.

To determine if the infectious disease is foodborne, airborne, or person-to-person transmitted, the doctor would assess the symptoms and incubation period of the illness, as well as the attendees' activities and interactions at the party. They would look for patterns, such as whether multiple people who ate the same food became ill (suggesting foodborne transmission) or if symptoms appeared after close contact with an infected individual (indicating person-to-person spread). Additionally, environmental factors like ventilation and the presence of respiratory symptoms could help indicate airborne transmission. Gathering detailed histories from affected individuals would also aid in the diagnosis.
