We want to talk about some important diseases you might know,as you read through the article you to know them better.
1.Cholera
Cholera is an infectious disease caused by a bacterium which infects the intestinal tract of human. This is  a tropical diseases widespread  throughput southeast Asia,India and parts of Africa like Nigeria,Zambia,Ghana etc
This disease as earlier said is caused by a bacteria named Vibrio cholerae or Vibrio eltor. This bacteria moves in the water with the aid of an organ called Flagellum which allows it to propels it self through water
This diseases is usually  transmitted to human through contaminated water which are infected with faeces of infected cholera patients. They enter the human body when we take in contaminated foods and water, or come in contact with the faeces,urine or oral secretions of an infected patient. This cholera of a disease can be also spread by the help of housefly
This disease when it affects the human it shows some symptoms, when the bacteria gets to the intestine,they multiply themselves rapidly and secretes some enzymes called Mucinase which digest the mucus lining of the human intestinal wall. The exposed wall become damaged by endotoxins produced by those bacteria,resulting to a severe diarrhoea,usually aided by acute abdominal pain and vomiting. The faeces will be watery and full of the cholera bacteria. This is known as rice water stool
The patient becomes severely dehydrated in the next few hours if not quickly treated and extreme cases it causes death of the infected person
How do we treat infect patient the primary treatment is to prevent dehydration of such patient and also inject a saline solution into the veins of patient so that water content of the cell will be back to normal.
How to control and also prevent this diseases
•proper sanitation and habits should be observed to prevent drinking infect water contaminated with urine and faeces
•To kill the cholera bacteria,most cases  the bacteria can be killed with heat,so how do we deal with it,the infected patient will take boiled water and will use boiled water for everything the patient wants to eat to prevent infection
•since housefly can also transmit the disease we avoid breeding of house fly in the house and also take covering of food as an habit
