Enteric fever
Mary Mallon was a cook who was the first identified healthy carrier of typhoid fever. In 1906, she worked for a family where several members contracted typhoid. An investigation found Mallon to be the source, though she did not show symptoms. She was quarantined from 1907 to 1910. After her release, she obtained work under an alias as a cook and infected over 20 people. She was then permanently isolated from 1915 until her death in 1938. Typhoid fever remains endemic in parts of Asia and Africa, with over 16 million cases estimated annually. Diagnosis involves blood and stool cultures while treatment is usually with antibiotics like ciprofloxacin or azithromycin. Complications can include intestinal perforation or
Cholera
Cholera is an acute diarrheal disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae O1. It spreads through contaminated food or water and causes profuse watery diarrhea and vomiting that can lead to severe dehydration and death if untreated. The key aspects of cholera prevention and control include early detection and treatment with oral rehydration, antibiotic therapy, improved water and sanitation, vaccination in at-risk areas, and health education on hygiene practices. National programs in India have focused on these measures to reduce the burden of cholera.

Bone marrow culture may increase the likelihood of bacteriologic confirmation. In younger children leukocytosis is common and may reach 20,000 to 25,000 cell/microliter. Thrombocytopenia is marker of severity and may accompany DIC. Classic widal test lacks sensitivity and specificity and prone to error. A nested polymerase chain reaction analysis using H1-d primers has been used to amplify specific genes in pt’s blood.
