Bacteria - Anthrax and Cholera

Symptoms of cholera -The primary symptoms of cholera are profuse, painless diarrhea and vomiting of clear fluid.

Symptoms of anthrax - 

  • Fever (temperature greater than 100 degrees F). The fever may be accompanied by chills or night sweats.
  • Flu-like symptoms
  • Cough, usually a non-productive cough, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle aches
  • Sore throat, followed by difficulty swallowing, enlarged lymph nodes, headache, nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal distress, vomiting, or diarrhea
  • A sore, especially on your face, arms or hands, that starts as a raised bump and develops into a painless ulcer with a black area in the center.

Examples of common human diseases caused by viruses include the common cold, influenza, chickenpox, and cold sores.

Symptoms of influenza - 

  • Fever of 100°F (37.8°C) to 104°F (40°C), which can reach 106°F (41°C) when symptoms first develop. Fever is usually continuous, but it may come and go. Fever may be lower in older adults than in children and younger adults. When fever is high, other symptoms usually are more severe.
  • Body aches and muscle pain (often severe), commonly in the back, arms, or legs.
  • Headache.
  • Pain when you move your eyes.
  • Fatigue, a general feeling of sickness (malaise), and loss of appetite.
  • A dry cough, runny nose, and dry or sore throat. You may not notice these during the first few days of the illness when other symptoms are more severe. As your fever goes away, these symptoms may become more evident.

Aspergillosis is a disease caused by fungus and usually occurs in people with lung diseases or weakened immune systems.

Candidiasis is another diseases caused by fungus.
