16th World Conference on Infectious Diseases, Prevention and Control

The rainy weather leads to an increase in  viral   activity especially that of the Respiratory Syncytial Virus, thought to be the most common type that causes cold. Respiratory syncytial virus causes an epidemic among small children. The symptoms may vary from running nose and sneezing to severe cough and wheezing, breathing difficulty. The recent conjuration of rains has brought on a fresh session of cold and influenza , making it tough for children returning to school after the summer vacation and professionals trying to work through the whines and fever without infecting their colleagues. Infants should be kept clothed and protected from chill air. We are also seeing an increase in diarrhoea’s cases because of the rains. The rain water is the main culprit, especially if you are eating out often.  In summer and  although in rainy season brings a calm refreshing coolness, it also brings several infections and viral diseases like dengue, chikungunya, malaria, ty...

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a chronic immune inflammatory response within the alimentary canal, is assessed as 2 major forms, Crohn’s disease (CD) and colitis (UC). A rise within the frequency of IBD (from 68.6 cases per 100,000 people in 1990 to 89.6 cases per 100,000 people in 2017) in developing countries has become a big ill health over the last three decades]. Usually, IBD causes symptoms like fatigue, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain. The pathogenesis of IBD remains not fully understood but appears to be influenced by interplay between genetic factors, environmental factors, immunological factors, and disruption of the intestinal microbiota composition. Current treatment options for IBD are mainly supported conventional methods like treatment with 5-aminosalicylic acid, corticosteroids, and immunosuppressive drugs; however, these therapies generally cause significant side effects and a large subset of patient relapse. The intestine is that the largest digestive organ wit...

  Antibiotic resistance is accelerated by poor infection prevention and control, as well as the misuse and overuse of antibiotics. Bacteria, not humans or animals, become antibiotic-resistant. The infections they cause are harder to treat than those caused by non-resistant bacteria and these bacteria may infect humans and animals. In all parts of the world antibiotic resistance is rising to dangerously high levels. Threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases , new resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally. A growing list of infections are becoming harder, and sometimes impossible, to treat as antibiotics become less effective such as Ebola Virus, HIV, AIDs, Influenza, and Fungal.   The emergence and spread of resistance is made worse, where antibiotics can be bought for human or animal use without a prescription, similarly, antibiotics are often over-prescribed in countries without standard treatment guidelines, by health workers and veter...

The most common sort of blood infection is understood as sepsis, a serious complication of septicemia. Sepsis is when inflammation throughout the body occurs. This inflammation can cause blood clots and block oxygen from reaching vital organs, leading to organ failure. Usually, the infection is caused by bacteria.   This is often why healthcare providers clean the skin to kill bacteria before they provide an attempt or IV. They also use gloves and sterilized instruments and equipment to stop the spread of bacteria and viruses. You have a better risk of getting a blood infection if you have:        Cancer       AIDS/HIV      Long-term illness, like diabetes, a heart condition, or lung problems      Taking medicines like steroids or anticancer drugs Common signs and symptoms include fever, increased pulse, increased breathing rate, and confusion. There can also be symptoms associated with a selected infect...

Fever is a body temperature which is measured higher than the normal temperature. Most of the people experience normal body temperature around 98.6ᴼF (37ᴼC). It is a temporary increase in the body temperature, frequently caused due to an illness. Some of the common symptoms of fever are general weakness, sweating, headache, dehydration, irritability, loss of appetite etc. It can be measured through digital thermometers. Initially, vaccines develop the immune system to protect against bacteria or viruses that makes a person sick. It is a medical product, though they are invented to protect from diseases but, cause many side effects like swelling, soreness or redness at the injection site etc. It works by training the immune system to recognize and fighting pathogens, either bacteria or viruses. To perform this, certain molecules from the pathogen must be launched into the body to trigger an immune response. Fever is a compulsory symptom after any vaccination. Vaccination is a ...

Coronaviruses is a set of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in birds and mammals. Most of the people are infected with COVID-19 virus will undergo mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without hospitalization. Common symptoms of COVID-19 are dry cough, fever and tiredness. It also affects different people in different ways like sore throat, headache, diarrhea , loss of taste or smell, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, chest pain or pressure and so on. COVID-19 virus can be prevented by maintaining at least one meter distance between from people who cough and sneeze, avoid touching your face, by avoiding unnecessary travel and practice physical distancing. At-Home Coronavirus treatment can be taken through various ways like try to stay in one place in your home, cover your coughs and sneezes with Cover your coughs and sneezes with your elbow or a tissue and wash regularly, especially your hands. In order to overcome this COVID-19 everyone should practic...

Infections that have recently appeared in the population, whose geographic range is increasing day by day or threatens to increase in near future, are called emerging infectious diseases . Emerging diseases can be caused by previously undetected infectious agents or known agents that have spread. The emergence of new infectious diseases or the re-emergence of old infectious diseases can be caused naturally by the evolution of pathogens or the interaction of human population. Influenza or flu is an example of emerging infectious disease which is caused due to both natural and human factors. Influenza virus has the ability to change its genetic information. Major changes in the virus can cause pandemics as the human immune system is not prepared to recognize and defend against the new pathogens. The recent outbreak of deadly coronavirus disease which is related to RNA viruses, it can be caused to birds and mammals. They cause mild illness which includes cold and cough which are also c...
