Match the following.(a) Coxsackie virus 1. Chicken pox (b) Parvovirus B19 2. German Measles (c) Rubella virus 3. Erythema infectiosum (d) Varicella-zoster virus 4. Hand, foot and mouth disease
(a) 4, (b) 3, (c) 2, (d) 1
Each of these viruses causes a characteristic disease that usually shows up with a skin rash, mostly in children.
Coxsackie viruses (enteroviruses) cause hand, foot and mouth disease, with blisters on the palms, soles and inside the mouth, so (a) matches 4. Parvovirus B19 causes erythema infectiosum (fifth disease, the “slapped cheek” rash), so (b) matches 3.
The rubella virus causes rubella, also called German measles, so (c) matches 2. The varicella-zoster virus causes chicken pox (and later shingles), so (d) matches 1.
The matching is therefore (a) 4, (b) 3, (c) 2, (d) 1. Every other code links Coxsackie virus to chicken pox, German measles or erythema infectiosum, which is wrong.
(a) 4, (b) 3, (c) 2, (d) 1 option is correct.
