Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by parasites spread through insect bites that slowly spreads through the body, causing ulcers at the bite site and potentially destroying internal organs, killing 50,000 to 60,000 people annually. HIV/AIDS rates in Israel were 52.8 cases per million in 2009, with the first case documented in 1981 and 6,374 people living with AIDS that year. Iraq has struggled with access to fresh water since 2003 as water treatment systems fell apart, putting young children at risk for severe diarrhea, malnutrition, and stunted growth.

EBOLA
Ebola is a virus first discovered in 1976 near the Ebola River with 5 strains. It is transmitted through direct contact with infected bats, primates, or body fluids like sweat, saliva, mucus, or blood from an infected person. Once the virus enters the body, it spreads and attacks organ systems, causing internal bleeding and bleeding through the skin. Treatment focuses on supportive care like IV fluids, blood transfusions, and oxygen until the immune system can develop antibodies to fight off the virus. The document provides profiles of two Americans who died from Ebola as of November 2014 and recommends preventing transmission through proper hand washing and avoiding contact with infected individuals or contaminated surfaces.
May I Have A Glass of Water, Please?
The document discusses several waterborne diseases that plague many parts of the world due to lack of access to clean drinking water. It notes that over 1 billion people do not have access to clean water, and that every 8 seconds a child dies from a waterborne illness or lack of water. It then provides details on diseases such as cholera, typhoid, diarrhea, dysentery, river blindness, snail fever, and elephantiasis, explaining their causes and impacts. It emphasizes that clean water is the only preventative method for these diseases for which there is no cure or vaccine. The document concludes by requesting donations to provide clean water and help children in Elayi Village, Nigeria.
CHOLERA
Cholera is an infectious disease caused by the Vibrio cholerae bacterium found in contaminated food or water. It causes severe watery diarrhea that can lead to dehydration and death if untreated. The first cholera pandemic emerged in 1817 in India from contaminated rice. Symptoms include profuse watery diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration. Treatment involves oral rehydration with clean water, while prevention focuses on drinking boiled or chemically treated water and eating cooked foods. A vaccine exists but rapid treatment of symptoms is still important to control cholera outbreaks.
Cholera
Cholera is an infectious disease caused by eating or drinking food/water contaminated with the Vibrio cholerae bacterium. It causes severe watery diarrhea which can lead to dehydration and death if untreated. While rare in the US, it is still a serious problem in parts of Africa, Asia, and Latin America where sanitation is poor. Symptoms include watery diarrhea, vomiting, and signs of dehydration like rapid heart rate and loss of skin elasticity. Treatment focuses on rehydration through oral or IV fluids. Prevention involves drinking only boiled, bottled or chemically disinfected water and avoiding raw foods from contaminated sources.
Wilson disease
Wilson disease is a rare genetic disorder that causes copper to accumulate in the body's organs. It is caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene and prevents the body from properly processing copper. Left untreated, copper builds up in the liver, brain, kidneys and eyes, causing organ damage. Symptoms vary depending on the affected organs but may include liver problems, neurological issues, and Kayser-Fleischer rings forming around the eyes' irises. Treatment focuses on removing excess copper from the body using medication and a low-copper diet.
Diseases Produced By Water
The document summarizes diseases caused by contaminated water and how to prevent them. It discusses diseases transmitted through water consumption or contact, including cholera, typhoid, hepatitis A and diarrhea. Other diseases are caused by aquatic organisms or insects that breed near water, such as malaria, dengue, and filariasis. Lack of access to clean water and sanitation can also cause trachoma, leprosy, tuberculosis and whooping cough. The document recommends boiling, chlorinating, and properly storing water, as well as hand washing and hygiene practices to prevent water-related illnesses. Areas most affected include those with unsafe tap water, water shortages, contaminated waters, or that experience natural disasters.

Mutatio
1. Progeria is a rare genetic disorder that causes accelerated aging. Children with progeria typically die of age-related diseases like heart attack or stroke by age 13. It is caused by a mutation in the LMNA gene and symptoms include rigid skin, baldness, bone abnormalities, and a characteristic nasal shape. Progeria is studied to help understand the aging process.
2. Uner Tan syndrome is a controversial condition where people walk on all fours. It was proposed by Turkish biologist Uner Tan after studying a family in Turkey with this trait. They have primitive speech and brain impairment. Tan believes it represents a backward stage in human evolution caused by a genetic mutation.

Essay On Sickle Cell Anemia
The document provides information about sickle cell anemia. It discusses that sickle cell anemia is a genetic blood disorder where red blood cells become sickle shaped and have trouble flowing through small blood vessels. This causes tissue damage from lack of blood flow. Symptoms include anemia, pain episodes, organ damage, and stroke. It is inherited when both parents carry the sickle cell gene. While there is no cure, treatment focuses on managing pain and preventing complications.
Cholera Symptoms: 5 risk factors you should be anxious about
Cholera symptoms are usually mild, but in some extreme conditions, they can be fatal if left untreated. Cholera mostly prevails in poverty and places affected by natural disasters or war. People in these places live in crowded conditions, and they don’t have access to proper sanitation.
Cholera symptoms show its effects within a few hours of infection. In some cases, it may also take 3 to 5 days.
Cholera is a type of infectious disease that will cause watery diarrhea, eventually leading to dehydration. If it is left untreated, it can lead to death.
Cholera is caused by drinking water or eating food that contains a bacterium known as Vibrio Cholerae. During the 1800s, a large population of the United States was affected by cholera. But after the modernization of the water and sewage systems, the rate of this disease has lessened.
Usually, cholera symptoms are not severe. But sometimes, it may be serious as well. 1/20th of every cholera-infected person suffers diarrhea and vomiting, leading to dehydration.
Cholera (Olashore Emmanuel)
Cholera is a severe infectious disease that is characterized by violent purging, vomiting, muscular cramps, suppression of urine, thirst and circulatory collapse. However, Death can occur as quickly as a few hours after the onset of symptoms.

Sickle cell anemia
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic blood disorder where red blood cells become stiff and sticky and form clumps that can get stuck in blood vessels, blocking blood flow. This causes pain, infections, and organ damage. It occurs when someone inherits two sickle cell genes, one from each parent. Those with one sickle cell gene have sickle cell trait and do not have the disease. It most commonly affects those with ancestry from sub-Saharan Africa, South and Central America, the Caribbean, India, and Mediterranean countries. While there is no cure, treatments can help relieve symptoms and prevent complications.
Bacteria and viruses
The document discusses the work of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch in developing the germ theory of disease. It describes some of their key discoveries in identifying the microorganisms that cause anthrax, wound infections, tuberculosis, and cholera. It notes that Koch received the 1905 Nobel Prize for his work developing tuberculin as a test for tuberculosis. The document also provides Koch's postulates for establishing a microorganism as the cause of a disease.
Stomach germs you need to avoid
This document discusses several types of bacteria and viruses that can cause stomach infections, including E. coli, Campylobacter, Listeria, Vibrio, Toxoplasma, Salmonella, and Norovirus. It describes where each pathogen is typically found, the symptoms it causes, and precautions people can take to avoid infection, such as thoroughly cooking foods and washing hands. The key message is that following basic food safety and hygiene practices can help prevent the spread of dangerous stomach germs.
Sickle Cell
Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder where red blood cells become misshapen and crescent-shaped. It causes episodes of pain and other symptoms like fatigue and jaundice. While there is no cure, treatment with medication can help manage symptoms though the disease remains. It is most common among those with ancestry from sub-Saharan Africa, South and Central America, Caribbean countries, and Mediterranean countries.
