Corynebacterium diphtheriae primarily causes diphtheria, a serious bacterial infection characterized by sore throat, fever, and the formation of a thick coating in the throat that can obstruct breathing. The toxin produced by the bacteria can lead to severe complications, including myocarditis and neuropathy. While diphtheria is the main disease associated with this pathogen, it can also contribute to other infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. Vaccination has significantly reduced the incidence of diphtheria in many parts of the world.
