    C If either I or II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both I and II are implicit. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Only one disease is being talked about, nothing about the effect of all the diseases has been mentioned. Thus I is not implicit. Also, the comparison between the strength of the two strains on individual level is not mentioned. Thus, II is also not implicit.
