Answers
Incorrect statement about chronic disease tuberculosis is (I) It is caused by Salmonella
Explanation:
1.Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The bacteria usually attack the lungs, but TB bacteria can attack any part of the body such as the kidney, spine, and brain. Not everyone infected with TB bacteria becomes sick.
2.Tuberculosis (TB) is a potentially serious infectious disease that mainly affects the lungs. The bacteria that cause tuberculosis are spread from person to person through tiny droplets released into the air via coughs and sneezes.
3.There are 3 stages of TB—exposure, latent, and active disease. A TB skin test or a TB blood test can diagnose the disease. Treatment exactly as recommended is necessary to cure the disease and prevent its spread to other people.
Answer: Incorrect statement about chronic disease tuberculosis is (I) It is caused by Salmonella
Explanation:
Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. The lungs are the most often affected organ. It spreads from person to person through inhalation of TB patient droplets from sneezing, coughing, or spitting.
The bacteria, its toxin, or one of its surface proteins are all weakened or killed in the vaccine. It delivers active acquired immunity to the individual. If a youngster is given the polio vaccination, for example, that child will be immune to the disease.
The immune system protects the body against a variety of infections. Immune system cells circulate throughout the body, scavenging and killing pathogens. The stronger the immune system, the healthier the individual.
