Resurgence of Worrisome Diseases
Episode 7
Monday, 15 September, 2025
Several preventable diseases are experiencing a resurgence due to declining vaccination rates. These include: Diphtheria: A bacterial infection that can lead to a thick membrane in the throat and respiratory failure. Tuberculosis: A bacterial infection that can affect the lungs and other organs. Chickenpox: A viral infection that can cause blisters and scarring. Polio: A viral disease that can cause paralysis. Measles: This highly contagious virus can lead to serious complications, including pneumonia and encephalitis. Mumps: A viral infection that can cause swelling of the salivary glands and complications such as meningitis. Rubella: A viral infection that can cause birth defects in pregnant women. Pertussis (whooping cough): A bacterial infection that can cause severe coughing fits and respiratory problems, especially in infants. It's important to note that these diseases can also spread among vaccinated individuals, but the vaccines significantly reduce the risk of infection and its severity.
