Explanation / Answer

1. It is practical to say that there is no such age related risk, as patient isn't old. NO

2. Occupational disease could occur in case when occupation demands working in certain conditions of exposure to some unhealthy stimulant like working in mines. NO

3. Risk of STI is also not possible as the person was in a monogamous relationship since a long time if anything would have happened symptoms would have been clear long ago. NO

4. This can occur as during traveling the pets might have encountered some disease causing vector which they transmitted to the couple. Although the woman got sick after her husband and pets stayed home that means symptoms showed when she was alone, so possibility of pets transferring a disease is less, still we won't rule this one out. YES

5. She is denying any drug exposure so No.

6. Travel induced disease appears to be the most apt case in this scenario as both of them got same symptoms just after they traveled. YES

7. It's least likely for a couple to get similar genetic disease. Moreover no such disease is mentioned in family history. NO

8. This is not likely an allergy as both of the patients developed that. So NO

9. Immunocompromise should be considered as malnutrition may also lead to weak immunity. YES
