DANGEROUS DISEASES IN WORLD

1. LOWER RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS

 The deadliest disease in the modern world are a host of lower respiratory infections

 .Lower respiratory infections include pneumonia and other sickness of the lungs, bronchial tubes or windpipe. It’s hard to believe but it’s true—lower respiratory infections far outnumber the death toll for AIDS and malaria worldwide. Surprised?Diseases like this can change your life forever. The ten deadliest and the Top Ten Most Disfiguring Diseases definitely deserve mankind’s respect.

2. HIV/AIDS

This disease needs no introduction.

 The HIV, or human immunodeficiency virus, does nothing more than erode a person’s immune system, rendering the patient susceptible to other infections. AIDS, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, usually follows through within 8 to 15 years unless the patient receives treatment. Oftentimes, the patient dies of TB or pneumonia following the AIDS infection.

3. MALARIA

The virus affecting the human blood

 Malaria is transmitted by the deadliest animal in the world known to man: the female anopheles mosquito. In fact, malaria isn’t even transferable through physical contact, but still it accounts for millions of deaths worldwide every year. If that isn’t deadly enough for you

 Have you ever had acute stomach pains accompanied with the urge to use the toilet more often than usual? Then you have experienced diarrhea.

6. TETANUS


An SEM of the bacteria that causes tetanus

Tetanus easily beats meningitis and syphilis with its high infection rate and death toll. You see, the clostridium tetani spores—the tetanus bacteria—live in the soil, and so are present everywhere. Something as simple as a small cut or a wound can infect you with the disease several days after coming in contact with a dirty surface

7.A WHOOPING COUGH

The bacteria that causes a whooping cough

It is highly contagious and, once a person is infected, the illness is capable of causing a host of acute respiratory diseases on a person. What seems like an ordinary cough can kill you. Whooping cough can be treated with antibiotics, but vaccines are still the way to go for optimum immunity

8. MENINGITIS

A bacteria that can cause Meningitis

Meningitis is one of the world’s deadliest diseases, not just in terms of death rate, but in life after full recovery as well. A fatal infection covers the brain and the spinal cord area. Even with early diagnosis and immediate treatment, 5 to 10 percent of patients die, worth noting considering the advances in modern medical technology. 

9. SYPHILIS

Spiral-shaped organisms responsible for causing Syphilis

Syphilis is as widespread as it is deadly. Transmitted through sexual contact Syphilis can also be transmitted from an infected mother to a newborn infant directly, without physical contact. And while the disease is prevalent worldwide,
