Best Answer

Are you referring to the ailment, diphtheria? This disease is not seen as it use to be secondary to the vaccination series that children are required to have before the age of 18 months. This is a serious illness that clinically presents as severe neck swelling, upper airway obstruction, obstructive laryngotracheitis, and myocarditis. If not diagnosed or treated in time, it may be deadly.
