4
Underdeveloped Countries Infectious disease problem today –Poverty –Lack nutrition
5
Globally #1 Cause Death Infectious disease –Protozoa –worms –Bacterial –viral
6
US Rise Infectious Poverty Drugs Alcohol New strains viral and bacterial
7
Pathogen Makes you sick Cause infections
8
Virus Non-living Must have host Reproduce/grow in host
9
Virus Types AIDS Cold Flu Polio Hepatitis Mumps Chicken pox
10

11
Terms Communicable- person to person Vector-animal to person
12
Immune System Factors Nutrition Exercise sleep Stress Genetics Pre-exposed
13
Tuberculosis “Poverty Disease” –Poor nutrition –Sanitation Affects Lungs
14
Rise Infectious In Industrialized Global Travel Growth Cities Human sexuality Poverty increasing Drug use increasing
15
Infectious Disease Factors General health Sanitation Antibiotics Vaccines
16
Antibiotics Kill bacteria Not virus Bacterial mutations reduce effectiveness
17
Body Defense Skin-1 st Cilia Mucus membranes Cough/sneeze Platelets White blood cells
18
Cold/flu Many strains Susceptible to pneumonia Vaccines prepare for certain yearly strain
19
Lyme Disease Bacteria in tick Need antibiotics Symptoms –Fever, skin lesions, fatigue, neurological, ache, stiff neck
20
Mononucleosis Viral Spread in saliva Adults develop immunity Rest is cure
21
Hepatitis Liver virus A-E mild –Fecal to mouth transmission B,C,D chronic- leads to liver cancer –Needle, saliva, air A,B have vaccines
22
Immune Defense Antibodies-proteins fight virus/bacteria Lymphatic system-filter virus/bacteria T cells –Helper T- identify pathogen –Killer T- attack pathogens –Suppressor T-memory cells
23
Vaccines Mumps Measles Polio Small pox Hepatitis Whooping cough
24
Allergies Immune attack pollen, mold, dust, food, chemicals, drugs Produce antibodies histamine –Local blood flow increases –Narrow air tubes –rash
