Under which of the following conditions is a person most likely to fall sick ?
(a) When she is recovering from malaria.
(b) When she has recovered from malaria and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox.
(c) When she is on a four-day fast after recovering from malaria and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox.
Why ?
The person is more likely to fall sick when she is on a four-day fast after recovering from malaria and is taking care of someone suffering from chicken-pox.
This is because the disease has already made the person weak, then the lack of food does not allow the person to regain health. The weak immune system is highly susceptible to catching diseases and moreover the highly infectious nature of the disese chicken pox makes the person susceptible to catching the disease.
