Concept(s)/Content: What are Infectious Diseases?

Infectious diseases are disorders caused by
organisms — such as bacteria, viruses, fungi or
parasites. Many organisms live in and on our
bodies. They're normally harmless or even helpful.
But under certain conditions, some organisms may
cause disease.

Infectious diseases can be any of the following:

• Chickenpox.
• Common cold.
• Diphtheria.
• E. coli.
 • Giardiasis.
• HIV/AIDS.
• Infectious mononucleosis.
• Influenza (flu)
There are numerous reasons why Vaccination is
important. Some of which includes:
Vaccination is very safe and effective.
Immunizations protect others you care about.
Immunizations can save your family time and
money.

Skills & Disposition (Attitudes): Discuss importance of vaccination

Participate in class and group discussion.
Display appreciation for the awareness of infectious diseases.
Respect others’ opinion.
