A) Jaundice: Virus
Jaundice is caused due to viruses that cause hepatitis or any other infection of the liver. The virus leads to hyperbilirubinemia or excessive build-up of bilirubin that lends a yellowish color to the face and body. The virus is transmitted through contaminated water.
B) Rabies: Lyssavirus
This is caused due to the transmission of the Lyssavirus by the bite of infected animals like dogs, cats, monkeys, etc. The virus leads to high fever and difficulty in consuming liquids.
C) Typhoid: Salmonella typhii
This bacteria is transmitted through contaminated food and water. It leads to excessive weakness, diarrhea, and high fever.
D) Vector of dengue: Aedes
The bite of the Aedes mosquito causes dengue. It leads to excessive bleeding in stool, vomiting, weakness, and high fever.
E) Tuberculosis: Mycobacterium tuberculosis
The bacteria is air-borne and affects the respiratory system primarily. It impacts the lungs and in later stages of the disease, the kidney and spinal cord are also affected.
