The public health nurse understands that which of the following is an example of a vector borne disease?
Correct Answer: B

Hepatitis B is transmitted through blood and bodily fluids, E. coli 0157:H7 is transmitted through contaminated food or water, and Anthrax is caused by bacteria found in soil.
Therefore, Rocky Mountain spotted fever is the only example of a vector-borne disease among the options provided.
