Introduction To Diseases
Diseases have been around for all the past years. Some diseases have gone away overtime & new ones have came out. In the past time people used to think that if you had a disease it was an evil spirit, so they would make a hole in their head to drive away the evil spirits. In other ancients times the people used to think that it was a punishment from god, since they were very religious, they thought they had done something that didn't please the gods. Now there are many new diseases & different technologies that help us understand and cure the viruses or diseases.
Some of the diseases we chose were Thyphoid, Cholera, Hepatitis A, Japanese Encephalitis, & Malaria. these are modern diseases that are very common these days.
