An increase in new technology within medicine is often thought to be advancement within society, because it increases the overall health of a population. Human innovations like full-body imaging through Magnetic resonance imaging or MRI, minimally invasive surgeries through the use of a robot called the Da Vinci, and the development of antibiotic prescriptions has increased life expectancies and assisted medical professionals to properly diagnose and treat a patient. However, these inventions do

of the disease are fever, sweating, shivering, anaemia, nausea, headaches, muscle pain and an enlarged spleen. The infection targets the liver, red blood cells and the brain causing these symptoms.

Microorganisms form part of our normal flora, however they can become pathogens where their main role is to survive and multiply, often at the expense of the host. Pathogens cause infectious diseases depending on their virulence; this was first realised when Louis Pasteur discovered microbes contaminated wine, causing it to go sour. He wondered how microbes affected humans; however it was Robert Koch that linked the contamination of microbes to the cause of infectious diseases. Between them they

The Skipper Butterfly is in the family Hesperiidae. They have a wingspan of 29 to 31 millimeters, 1.14 to 1.22 inches, and are 2.5 to 6 inches, 6.604 to 15.24 centimeters, in length.

Injuries and wound infections are very common in such disasters that need immediate management; otherwise it may lead to morbidity and mortality. Medical management is very difficult at that situation as the access to hospital sector would be either not possible or difficult. Autoinjectors are

Infectious Disease in Africa The earth has been evolving for billions of years, growing in population as well as advancing technologically for thousands of years. Most places are up to speed with the latest and greatest new technology. Africa, however, is struggling to get by without any of these luxuries.
