What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Tracking Dengue Fever Outbreaks in China: Molecular Epidemiology
Dengue fever is caused by an RNA virus that is now endemic to over 100 countries with subtropical and tropical climates. Close to 3 billion people are therefore at risk, which explains the estimated 50 to 100 million infected each year. Although many never experience overt symptoms, those who do frequently recover fully after a few weeks; however, children, tourists, and immigrants in endemic areas have an increased risk for developing severe and sometimes fatal disease. Public health virologists now employ a variety of techniques to track outbreaks, including sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Jing and colleagues (2012) applied these tools to the 2010 dengue outbreak in Gangzhou, China and found that this outbreak was caused by a single person traveling from Thailand, a location that is endemic for dengue.
