begins with Lassa fever by describing the name, and then describing a case in which the fever presented on several different patients, effectively killing them in a very “The Last Stand” way. Oldstone repeats this in separate chapters about Ebola and Hantavirus, HIV, and Mad Cow disease, highlighting the complexity of the maladies of modern day and the effect they have on their

The Ebola virus is a strong, serious, fatal illness, which has a large impact on the population today. In 2013, an outbreak of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) quickly grew into an epidemic of exceptional magnitude. The virus killed ten times more people than all previous EVD outbreaks taken together.

The poor healthcare infrastructures and penetrable

Global Warming and Human Influence Global warming can be defined as; “An increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution” (Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, 2008).

Protista are simple eukaryotic organisms where the DNA is enclosed in a nucleus inside the cell. Protists are not animals, plants or fungi. Protists can be classified in to four general subgroups, the plantlike algae, animal-like protozoans, fungus-like slime molds and water molds. Protozoa are mostly the predators and parasites, for example, Amoeba sp. and Paramecium sp.. They live in water and moist terrestrial habitats. From all the microbes, viruses are the simplest and tiniest, just a ball
