Which of the following was not one of the challenges that settlers faced?

The colonists at Jamestown, the second English colony in what would later become the United States, faced a slew of fatal problems. A prolonged drought that made growing food crops and finding fresh water difficult led to starvation and the drinking of contaminated water, which, along with the swampy area’s plentiful mosquitoes, contributed to the spread of deadly diseases. The settlers also faced conflict with the indigenous people, poor leadership in their own community, the extreme heat and cold of Virginia’s climate, and the fact that they were, overall, woefully unprepared to survive in such harsh conditions.

The constant presence of diseases or infectious agents within a given geographic area or population group. it may also refer to the usual prevalence of a given disease with such area or group. it includes holoendemic and hyperendemic diseases. a holoendemic disease is one for which a high prevalent level of infection begins early in life and affects most of the child population, leading to a state of equilibrium such that the adult population shows evidence of the disease much less commonly than do children (malaria in many communities is a holoendemic disease). a hyperendemic disease is one that is constantly present at a high incidence and/or prevalence rate and affects all groups equally. so probably family history.
