Secondary attack rate refers to the spread of disease in a family, household, dwelling unit, dormitory, or similar circumscribed group.

How is the total number of contacts in a secondary attack calculated?
It is calculated as: Often, the total number of contacts in the denominator is calculated as the total population in the households of the primary cases, minus the number of primary cases. For a secondary attack rate, 10 n usually is 100%. Consider an outbreak of shigellosis in which 18 persons in 18 different households all became ill.

If you use a full round action to attack, you can get extra attacks. Those extra attacks occur at BAB +6, +11, and +16 for a Fighter. Each extra one is -5 from the previous one.
How many attacks do you get with the attack action?
If you use this to take the Attack action, you get as many attacks as you would if you took it for your first action.
