Answer:
Tuberculosis: Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) that most often affect the lungs. Tuberculosis is curable and preventable. TB is spread from person to person through the air. When people with lung TB cough, sneeze or spit, they propel the TB germs into the air. Take all of your medicines as they’re prescribed, until your doctor takes you off them. Keep all your doctor appointments. Always cover your mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Seal the tissue in a plastic bag, then throw it away. Wash your hands after coughing or sneezing. Don’t visit other people and don’t invite them to visit you. Stay home from work, school, or other public places. Use a fan or open windows to move around fresh air & Don’t use public transportation.
Cholera: Cholera is a bacterial disease usually spread through contaminated water. Cholera causes severe diarrhea and dehydration. Left untreated, cholera can be fatal within hours, even in previously healthy people. Modern sewage and water treatment have virtually eliminated cholera in industrialized countries. Symptoms: Vomiting; Dehydration; Diarrhea.Make sure to drink and use safe water to brush your teeth, wash and prepare food, and make ice. ... Wash your hands often with soap and safe water. Use latrines or bury your poop; do not poop in any body of water. Cook food well (especially seafood), keep it covered, and eat it hot.
Tetanus: Tetanus is an infection caused by bacteria called Clostridium tetani. When the bacteria invade the body, they produce a poison (toxin) that causes painful muscle contractions. Another name for tetanus is “lockjaw”. It often causes a person's neck and jaw muscles to lock, making it hard to open the mouth or swallow. Being up to date with your tetanus vaccine is the best tool to prevent tetanus. Protection from vaccines, as well as a prior infection, do not last a lifetime.
Syphilis: Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by a type of bacteria known as Treponema pallidum. In 2016, more than 88,000 cases of syphilis were reported in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.The only certain way to avoid syphilis is to avoid (abstain from) having sex. The next-best option is to have mutually monogamous sex in which both partners have sex only with each other and neither partner is infected. Use a latex condom.
