    Sunaina, a recent MBBS graduate working as a medical officer, needs to investigate a number of fever cases from a nearby village where the villagers suspect contaminated water in the overhead tank is the cause. She should conduct an observational analytical study such as a cohort or case-control study. The steps would include selecting exposed and non-exposed groups, collecting data on water source and fever cases, and analyzing the data to see if there is an association between water source and fever. As a medical officer, she would advise immunizing pregnant women against tetanus, as it is imperative to prevent neonatal tetanus. Personal protective equipment should only be used as a last resort to prevent occupational diseases.
