Infectious Diseases

Normal measles is caused by the Rubeola virus. You most likely got vaccinated for it as a child - it's a part of the MMR (measles mumps rubella) vaccine. Make sure not to confuse Rubeola (normal measles) with Rubella (German measles) as they're slightly different viruses :)
Does anybody know because I really need to know for my science stuff and I don't have a clue! Help please. Many Thanks.

The measles virus, specifically the Measles morbillivirus, is responsible for causing measles in humans. It is highly contagious and is spread through respiratory droplets from coughs and sneezes of an infected person. Vaccination is an effective way to prevent measles.

I believe it is lytic. Think: colds are fast acting; they don't sit in your cell for years on end. This means they are lytic (fast acting).

Some reputable websites for finding information on viruses include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). These sites provide up-to-date and accurate information on various viruses, outbreaks, and prevention measures.

1. Bacteria: Single-celled microorganisms that can cause infections like strep throat or tuberculosis.
2. Viruses: Small infectious agents that can cause diseases such as influenza or HIV.
3. Fungi: Microorganisms like molds and yeasts that can cause infections like athlete's foot or thrush.
4. Parasites: Organisms that live on or inside a host and can cause diseases such as malaria or giardiasis.

It's a virus, a type of pathogen entirely different from other pathogen groups. There are many different paramyxoviruses that affect humans directly, including measles, Hendra virus and Nipah virus, and mild ones that cause colds.

No, Tamiflu (oseltamivir) does not contain sulfa. It is a neuraminidase inhibitor used to treat and prevent influenza virus infections.

It was a team effort. Teams of scientists from the Centers from Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and public health departments from several other nations worked together to identify and isolate the virus that was causing the outbreak in Mexico, California and Texas in the US.

One of the scientists mentioned to have been involved in the analysis was the leading virologist, Wendy Barclay, who on May 1, 2009 determined that there were characteristics of the virus that resembled other viruses that had caused only mild symptoms and she indicated that this new 2009 H1N1 influenza was unlikely to give most people serious symptoms.

It was just prior to that when on April 27, 2009 the CDC Scientists in Atlanta were able to document the genome sequence of the new strain to share with other scientists in their databases. Not long afterward, on May 6, 2009, Canadian scientists from Winnipeg were able to share the full genetic sequencing of the viruses that had struck Mexico and Canada.

The scientists all over the world remain very busy working and sharing information to further various studies of the pandemic flu still underway.

Cyanobacteria can photosynthesize like plants, using sunlight to produce energy from water and carbon dioxide. This ability is not found in most other types of bacteria. Additionally, cyanobacteria can produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, contributing to the Earth's atmospheric oxygen levels.

An airborne disease is a condition that is spread through tiny particles in the air, such as respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Examples include influenza, tuberculosis, and COVID-19. Preventive measures like wearing masks and improving ventilation can help reduce the spread of airborne diseases.

There is two stories, one says he left to take on his solo career, and the other says Scott and Joey hate eachother.

Influenza primarily infects birds and mammals, including humans. It is a virus that affects the respiratory system and can cause symptoms such as fever, cough, and body aches.

The normal microbiota of gut are non-pathogenic and are
Enterococcus faecalis, lactobacillli Peptostreptococcus, yeasts, but gut alos contain some pathogenic bacteria but in very less no. i.e. less then 10 viable cells which are non effective like Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Candida albicansetc.

N95 is a type of respirator mask that is recommended for healthcare workers when caring for patients with infectious diseases like H1N1 influenza. N95 masks can filter out 95% of airborne particles, including viruses, and are designed to provide a tight seal around the face to enhance protection.

No, measles and smallpox are two different infectious diseases caused by different viruses. Measles is caused by the measles virus (MeV), while smallpox is caused by the variola virus. Both diseases can be prevented through vaccination, but they have different symptoms and levels of severity.

cocci- which resemble sphers

bacilli- which look like rods

and spiralla- they resemble spirals

Yes, it is generally safe to eat eggs when you have a common cold. Eggs are a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals that can help support your immune system during illness. However, if you have an egg allergy or any adverse reactions to eggs, it is best to avoid them.

Typically no injuries are accommodated with the flu. Some people can die if their immune system is substantially weak and they don't receive the proper medical attention. Usually a headache is the first symptom with a sharply rising temperature then the cough and runny nose kicks in.

There are a few ways that blood borne pathogens can enter the human body. The routes of transmission include sexual activity, contact with blood and bodily fluids, and accidental sticks with a needle in a health care setting.

The term comes from the meaning of the two root words that make up the compound word: Pathos and Genesis. Pathos, means illness or disorder in this context and genesis means creation. So a pathogenic family is one that causes or encourages the development of mental disorder in its members. Pathogenic is similar to the everyday language phrase of "a dysfunctional family".

Christa McAuliffe, who was set to be the first teacher in space, had to miss the mission due to the measles outbreak in 1986. She was replaced by Barbara Morgan.

Giardiasis is caused by a parasite called Giardia lamblia, and it is typically transmitted through contaminated water or food. The parasite is ingested and then spreads to the small intestine where it reproduces and causes symptoms such as diarrhea and other gastrointestinal issues. Proper hygiene, such as washing hands thoroughly and purifying drinking water, is important in preventing the spread of giardiasis.
