A public health official reported that 60 percent of the children at summer school have never had the measles or chicken pox, and that of this 60 percent not one child has ever been observed to eat the cheese served in the school lunches.

Each of the following, if true, would strengthen the officials argument EXCEPT: A. Medically speaking, whatever serves to inhibit measles and chicken pox will generally inhibit the entire spectrum of childhood diseases. B. The observations the official carried out were extremely accurate, and all those observed to abstain from cheese at school did, in fact, abstain. C. The childrens eating habits are the same at school as anywhere else, and those who abstain from cheese products at school do so in general. D. Recent research has pointed to a deficiency in cheese products as one of the major causes of measles and chicken pox infections. E. Most cheeses and cheese products harbor bacteria that are known to be causative agents for many childhood diseases, such as measles and chicken pox. beatthegmat OA is D But m not convinced with it ! someone plz explain ! tenk you !
