    C Both I and II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Either I or II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Against an epidemic, precautionary measures should be taken every year and not every four years. Hence I does not follow. II is not a preventive action against conjunctivitis. Hence II also does not follow.
