Infectious Diseases

See how an infection enters, spreads and is fought — in interactive 3D with a live fever trace — then find care for dengue, malaria, typhoid, TB and more.

Conditions in this section

  • Dengue — A mosquito-borne viral fever — usually self-limiting, but watch closely for warning signs of severe dengue.
  • Malaria — A mosquito-borne parasite that infects red blood cells, causing cyclical fevers — curable, and preventable.
  • Typhoid Fever — A bacterial infection from contaminated food or water causing a prolonged fever — curable, and vaccine-preventable.
  • Tuberculosis (TB) — A bacterial infection, usually of the lungs, spread through the air — fully curable with a full course of treatment.
  • Viral Hepatitis — Viral infection of the liver (A, B, C, E) — some clear on their own, others need treatment; several are preventable.
  • Flu & COVID-19 — Common airborne respiratory viruses — usually mild, but can be serious for the elderly and vulnerable; vaccines help.
