- - - - Opportunistic
        pathogens
        
        Inflammation in a foreign area
        
        Otitis media: inflammation in the middle ear
        
        Rhinosinusitis: inflammation in the sinus
        
        Can be treated with
        
        Antibiotics
    - - Corynebacterium
        diphteriae
        
        Spread via
        
        Inhalation of the bacteria
        
        Causing
        
        Sore throat, localized pain, malaise, fever
        
        Can cause formation of pseudomembrane
    - - Streptococcus
        pyogenes
  - - - Signs and symptoms
        
        Sneezing, runny nose, sore throate, and cough
        
        Fever occur if secondary bacterial infections occur
      - Pathogenesis
        
        Attached to the cells of the nasal mucous membrane :arrow_forward: synthesize more viruses and kill the cells :arrow_forward: New viruses are released
        
        Infected cells lose the ciliary action :arrow_forward: shed off when die :arrow_forward:trigger inflammatory responses :arrow_forward: trigger excess mucous production
      - Epidemiology
        
        Spread from aerosols produced by coughing or sneezing, via formites
      - Treatment and prevention
        
        Treatment = Pleconaril to reduce the symptoms
        
        Prevention = hand antisepsis
      - Causative agent
        
        Virus within genus Enterovirus of the family Picornaviridae
- - - - Influenza virus type A and B
    - - SARS-CoV-2
    - - Hantavirus
        
        Transmitted via urine mice to human's lung
    - - RSV
        
        Spread via inhalation of the virus
        
        Adhere to the lung cells, cause the cell destruction, and spreads to invade other cells
        
        Signs and Symptoms:
        High fever
        Fatigue
        Muscle aches
        
        Treatment and Prevention
        
        Vaccination
        
        Symptoms reduction medication
        
        Can also be prevented by
  - - - Legionella pneumophila
        
        Spread via
        
        Inhalation of the bacteria
        
        Cause
        
        inflammation in the lungs, fever
        
        Can be treated with
        
        2 more items...
    - - Mycobacterium tuberculosis
    - - Bordetella pertussis
    - - Bacillus anthracis
        
        Spread via the inhalation of endospore
    - - Streptococcus pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Klebsiella penumoniae
        
        Kill tissues, and causing excess mucous production in the lungs
        
        Causing
        
        Wet cough often happens due to accumulation of excess mucous
