Infectious diseases project?

Boca Raton

I am doing a project where I have to make an infectious disease pamphlet and I am wondering what would be a good infectious disease to do? I want something interesting, a good load of information, but not too cliche. Some choices/options that I though of were:Tuberculosis MalariaSARSAny STI? Best answer gets 10 points.

i would chose the liver. since its the maIn organ we need. its the only one that grows back...well one of them...cirrhosis of the liver is a good topic. but if that's not a choice and the ones above are the Only ones then i would pick...tuberculosis. its a hard one to diagnose and it works in many ways. not to sure about it but its worth a shot...good luck

Well, it actually depends on what position you are in. It's like the Great Depression all over again. The economy is slightly getting better but many companies are fighting bankruptcy. Many people have/are going to lose/lost their job.

I'm not a medic in any way, shape or form, but I suspect the answer to this is a virus, so that would include the common cold. Viruses are small and often airborne so they spread quite easily and hence the reason antibiotics don't affect them. Because they spread by being airborne or by coming into contact with someone who has them, this would make them very infectious. Just think about if you're at work, or when you were a child at primary school... How many times did one child get something and before long it had touched every child in the class? But if you're talking about deadly infectious diseases, well that's something entirely different and although I could hazard a guess at some of the more potent ones, I'm not going to - I'd hate to misinform you! :o)

Common Infectious Diseases WorldwideSources: The Centers for Disease Control (CDC); The World Health Organization (WHO).The following is a list of the most common infectious diseases throughout the world today. Accurate caseload numbers are difficult to determine, especially because so many of these diseases are endemic to developing countries, where many people do not have access to modern medical care. Approximately half of all deaths caused by infectious diseases each year can be attributed to just three diseases: tuberculosis, malaria, and AIDS. Together, these diseases cause over 300 million illnesses and more than 5 million deaths each year...http://www. infoplease. com/ipa/A0903696.h…

the common cold is passed via airborne particles and through touching a person or surface which is contaminated. it is constantly mutating so natural and artificial immunity are powerless
