In this presentation we discussed about deadly virus dengue . Dengue has become another silent killer nowdays especially countries like Bangladesh, Philippine, Pakistan, India who has been struggling to handle dengue due to covid 19 pandemic .
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection that causes flu-like symptoms including high fever, headache, and joint pains. It is transmitted to humans through the bites of infected Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. While most cases are mild, severe dengue can cause bleeding, organ impairment, and death if not treated properly. There is currently no vaccine, so prevention focuses on eliminating mosquito breeding sites and using insect repellent and protective clothing.
The document discusses dengue fever, which is caused by dengue viruses and transmitted by mosquitoes. It describes the symptoms of mild dengue fever and more severe forms like dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. There is no vaccine or specific treatment, so treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and fluid replacement. Controlling mosquito populations through eliminating breeding sites and using repellents and nets is important for prevention.
Dengue fever is a global problem affecting 500,000 people annually. During epidemics, infection rates can reach 80-90% among non-immune individuals. Without proper treatment, fatality rates from dengue hemorrhagic fever can exceed 20%, but are reduced to less than 1% with access to medical care. The disease is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. Controlling the mosquito vectors through insecticides and reducing breeding sites is important for prevention, as vaccines do not yet exist. National strategies include integrated vector control, active disease surveillance, emergency preparedness, capacity building, and research on vector biology and control methods.
Dengue fever is a disease caused by viruses transmitted by mosquitoes. Symptoms include headache, fever, joint pain, and rash. It can range from mild to life-threatening hemorrhagic fever. While prevalent in tropical areas, local transmission has occurred in Florida. There is no vaccine or specific treatment, so prevention depends on controlling the mosquito population.
Dengue fever is caused by infection with one of four dengue viruses transmitted by the Aedes mosquito. It is characterized by fever, severe headache, backache and joint pains. There is no vaccine currently available, so prevention focuses on eliminating stagnant water where Aedes breed and protecting against mosquito bites. Community education and participation are important to control the disease.
Dengue is an arboviral disease spread by Aedes mosquitoes. It presents as a spectrum from mild Dengue Fever to life-threatening Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever/Dengue Shock Syndrome. After an incubation period, patients experience an acute febrile phase followed by a critical phase where increased vascular permeability can lead to plasma leakage and shock. Diagnosis is based on antibody detection, antigen detection, or RNA detection. Treatment focuses on fluid management, with supportive care being the most effective approach currently.
This document discusses several emerging infectious diseases including West Nile virus, Legionnaire's disease, Lyme disease, hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, Ebola virus, Marburg virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), and AH1N1 virus. It describes the causative agents, modes of transmission, clinical manifestations, and treatment approaches for each disease. The key points covered are prevention through avoidance of mosquito/tick bites or contaminated areas/rodents, recognition of symptoms such as fever and respiratory distress, and using proper hygiene and barrier techniques to limit transmission.

The document summarizes dengue fever, which is caused by a virus transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. It affects over 100 tropical and subtropical countries with major epidemics since the 1980s. The disease causes flu-like symptoms including fever, rash, and joint pain. A more severe form is dengue hemorrhagic fever which can be fatal if untreated. Prevention relies on controlling the mosquito population by eliminating breeding sites and applying larvicides. There is currently no vaccine available.
Coxsackieviruses and echoviruses are enteroviruses that can cause aseptic meningitis and other diseases. They are spherical, non-enveloped viruses that infect the intestines and respiratory tract. Common illnesses include hand-foot-and-mouth disease, herpangina, myocarditis, and pleurodynia. While symptoms are generally mild and self-limiting, last several days, in rare cases they can cause long-term complications like diabetes. Diagnosis involves identifying viruses from stool or throat swabs using PCR or serum antibody tests. Treatment is supportive with fluids and acetaminophen for fever.
The document discusses dengue fever and how it is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. It spreads when a female mosquito bites an infected person and then bites others, infecting up to 10 people per day. Symptoms include joint pain, weakness, headache, high fever, rashes, and loss of appetite. The best way to prevent dengue is to eliminate mosquito breeding sites and not allow nurseries, which will reduce mosquito populations and the spread of dengue.
Dr. S.M. Joshi provides information on Chikungunya fever, caused by the Chikungunya virus transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Key points include:
- Symptoms include fever, rash, headache, joint pains (arthralgia), and hemorrhagic manifestations.
- Illness is usually acute and lasts 3-10 days, but recovery is prolonged with weakness and joint pain.
- There is no vaccine, so prevention relies on mosquito bite avoidance and reducing vector populations. Treatment is symptomatic with anti-inflammatory drugs.
Disease State Presentation: Herpes Simplex VirusJoy Awoniyi
1. Herpes simplex virus is a double-stranded DNA virus that causes a variety of diseases through infection of mucosal surfaces. It has two types, HSV-1 and HSV-2, which can cause oral and genital lesions, respectively.
2. HSV infections are common worldwide and are transmitted through direct contact. Primary infections may present with localized lesions and systemic symptoms. Recurrent infections typically cause milder localized symptoms.
3. Diagnosis involves visual identification of lesions as well as laboratory tests to detect viral DNA. Antiviral medications can be used to treat infections and reduce symptoms.
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection causing flu-like symptoms and potentially lethal severe dengue. It is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito found in tropical and subtropical regions like Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, and Latin America. Risk factors include living in or traveling to affected areas, especially during rainy seasons when mosquitos are most active. Symptoms range from fever, headache and joint pains to severe bleeding and organ impairment. Prevention focuses on eliminating mosquito breeding sites, wearing protective clothing and using insect repellent.
This document summarizes information about anthrax and dengue fever. It describes anthrax as an infection caused by Bacillus anthracis that usually affects farm animals but can infect humans, causing pneumonia or meningitis. It notes the typical symptoms of cutaneous, inhalation, and gastrointestinal anthrax. For dengue fever, it identifies the dengue virus as the cause and notes it is transmitted by mosquitoes. It describes the different types of dengue fever from classical to dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, listing associated symptoms. Prevention strategies discussed include controlling mosquito populations and avoiding bites.
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection affecting over 100 countries. It is transmitted by the Aedes mosquito and risks have grown dramatically with around 50 million cases estimated annually. Symptoms range from fever and joint pain to potentially lethal hemorrhagic fever. There is no vaccine yet so prevention depends on avoiding mosquito bites and reducing breeding habitats.
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease affecting millions of people worldwide each year. It is transmitted by the bites of infected Aedes aegypti and albopictus mosquitoes, which breed in stagnant water. The dengue virus causes flu-like symptoms including fever, muscle pains, and rashes.

Adenovirus are large, non-enveloped viruses with linear, double-stranded DNA that are transmitted through respiratory droplets from coughing or sneezing or touching contaminated surfaces. Symptoms vary depending on infection site but include sore throat, sneezing, cough and pneumonia for respiratory infections and diarrhea for intestinal infections. Diagnosis is based on symptoms and can include molecular and blood tests. Treatment focuses on rest, fluids, fever medication and in severe cases additional treatment may be needed. Prevention involves handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes, and avoiding contact with infected individuals.
Viruses can infect all life forms including animals, plants and other microbes. Herpes viruses are found to cause skin infections like cold sores and genital herpes as well as eye and brain infections. Herpes simplex virus 1 usually causes oral infections while herpes simplex virus 2 typically causes genital infections. There is no cure for herpes but antiviral medications can prevent and shorten outbreaks as well as increase symptom-free periods through daily suppressive therapy.
The coxsackieviruses were discovered in 1948-1949 by Dr. Gilbert Dalldorf while searching for a cure for polio. He discovered viruses in the feces of polio patients that mimicked mild or nonparalytic polio. These viruses were eventually named coxsackieviruses after the town of Coxsackie, New York where the first specimens were obtained. The coxsackie virus is spread through direct contact with nose, throat or skin lesions and feces of infected individuals. It most often causes mild symptoms like sore throat and rash but hand and mouth blisters can form. Proper hygiene like hand washing is important to prevent spread.
Enteroviruses are common human pathogens found worldwide that usually cause mild fever but can rarely lead to severe disease. They are small, non-enveloped viruses with RNA genomes that infect through endocytosis and replicate in the cytoplasm before causing cell lysis. While often asymptomatic, they can cause rash, fever, muscle aches and other flu-like symptoms. Though no vaccine exists, treatment focuses on symptom relief and good hygiene to prevent transmission through bodily fluids. Major diseases include aseptic meningitis and hand, foot, and mouth disease.
The document discusses coronavirus, its structure, symptoms, diagnosis, outbreaks in 2019-2020, and precautions. Coronaviruses can be transmitted between animals and humans. The 2019-2020 outbreaks in China and Middle Eastern countries have caused severe respiratory illness and deaths. There is no vaccine and treatment is limited to relieving symptoms. Precautions include hand washing, mask wearing, cooking meat thoroughly, and seeking medical care for symptoms like cough or fever.

Initiative To Tackle Swine Flu by PBC, IndiaPbc Delhi
This document summarizes information about the H1N1 swine flu virus, including that the World Health Organization has declared it the first flu pandemic of the 21st century. It has infected over 55,000 people in 108 countries, including 238 deaths. Delhi, India is considered at high risk due to its dense population and many international travelers. Swine flu is an airborne viral infection causing flu-like symptoms from mild to severe. It can spread through coughing, sneezing, or touching infected surfaces. Basic prevention methods include handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes, avoiding crowds when sick, and getting plenty of rest.
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral disease that is rapidly spreading worldwide. It is estimated that around 50 million dengue infections and 25,000 deaths occur annually. The global prevalence of dengue has increased dramatically in recent decades, with around 2.5 billion people in over 112 countries now at risk of infection, primarily in tropical and subtropical regions. Major outbreaks have occurred in Southeast Asia and the Americas. Dengue is now considered a major international public health concern due to its increasing global spread.
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease that has been an increasing problem in India. It is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. There are typically two peaks of dengue outbreaks annually in India. The number of reported cases and deaths has been increasing, with over 99,000 cases and 220 deaths in 2015. The goal of the Global Strategy for Dengue Prevention and Control is to reduce dengue mortality by at least 50% and morbidity by 25% by 2020 through reducing mosquito populations, public education, and emergency response planning. Diagnosis involves virus isolation, antibody detection, or PCR testing. There is no vaccine for dengue prevention currently.
Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral disease that causes high fever, severe joint pains, and a skin rash. It is transmitted by the bite of an Aedes mosquito infected with one of four dengue viruses. Symptoms typically appear 4-7 days after being bitten and include fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and skin rash. In some cases, the disease can progress to dengue hemorrhagic fever which can be life-threatening. There is no vaccine to prevent or medication to treat dengue fever, so prevention focuses on eliminating mosquito breeding sites and using insect repellent and protective clothing when outdoors.
This document summarizes information about swine flu. It defines swine flu as a respiratory disease of pigs caused by influenza viruses. While humans do not normally get swine flu, they can contract it from close contact with pigs. Symptoms in humans are similar to seasonal flu and include fever, coughing, and sore throat. The current outbreak has caused over 80 deaths in Mexico and spread to other countries. Experts are monitoring the situation closely due to the potential for a pandemic if the virus spreads widely and affects a large portion of the population. People are advised to follow good hygiene practices to reduce transmission.
This document provides information about Chikungunya virus and disease. It discusses that Chikungunya is an infection caused by the Chikungunya virus and transmitted via mosquito bites. It causes fever and severe joint pain. While most people recover within a week, joint pain can sometimes persist for months. The document outlines the virus classification, signs and symptoms, treatment, history, outbreaks and prevention of Chikungunya infection.
Dengue fever is the fastest emerging arboviral infection spread
by Aedes mosquitoes with major public health consequences in
over 100 tropical and sub-tropical countries in South-East Asia,
the Western Pacific, and South and Central America. Up to 2.5
billion people globally live under the threat of dengue fever and its
severe forms—dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock
syndrome (DSS). More than 75% of these people, or approximately
1.8 billion, live in the Asia-Pacific Region. As the disease spreads to
new geographical areas, the frequency of the outbreaks is increasing
along with changing disease epidemiology. It is estimated that 50
a million cases of dengue fever occur worldwide annually and half a
million people suffering from DHF require hospitalization each year,
a very large proportion of whom (approximately 90%) are children
less than five years old. About 2.5% of those affected with dengue
die of the disease.

GEMMA Wean is a high end larval co-feeding and weaning diet aimed at Artemia optimisation and is fortified with a high level of proteins and phospholipids. GEMMA Wean provides the early weaned juveniles with dedicated fish nutrition and is an ideal follow on from GEMMA Micro or Artemia.
GEMMA Wean has an optimised nutritional balance and physical quality so that it flows more freely and spreads readily on the water surface. The balance of phospholipid classes to- gether with the production technology based on a low temperature extrusion process improve the physical aspect of the pellets while still retaining the high phospholipid content.
GEMMA Wean is available in 0.1mm, 0.2mm and 0.3mm. There is also a 0.5mm micro-pellet, GEMMA Wean Diamond, which covers the early nursery stage from post-weaning to pre-growing.
