- if either I or II is implicit.
- if neither I nor II is implicit.
- if both I and II are implicit.

Why did the DHS need to issue the notice? How can these initiatives save people from the fatal diseases ? Obviously I is the assumption behind it. Again, how can unused/broken articles lying on the roof can be mosquito-- friendly? Obviously, II is the assumption behind it.
