A resposta correta é a alternativa c) Apenas I, II e IV estão corretas. Um surto (outbreak) é mais localizado, com casos relacionados entre si ou em uma área geográfica pequena. Já uma pandemia (pandemic) afeta vários países ou mais de um continente. A classificação de uma doença como pandemia ou surto não depende da velocidade de instalação. Um surto maciço ocorre quando há transmissão a partir de uma fonte comum, enquanto um surto propagado ocorre quando há transmissão a partir de um vetor ou de pessoa para pessoa.
