What are the disease groups?\u003C\/h3\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMany kinds of disease cause epidemics. It is useful to put them in groups. This helps us to understand the nature of different diseases and manage epidemics better.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EDiseases can be grouped in several ways. For example, we can group them according to which germs cause them, how they are transmitted, or what symptoms they cause.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIn this training package, we group diseases in a way that will help you understand how to \u003Cstrong\u003Eprevent\u003C\/strong\u003E or \u003Cstrong\u003Emanage\u003C\/strong\u003E the epidemics they cause. On this basis, we have formed seven disease groups. These are:\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Col\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EFaecal-oral infections.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EDiseases preventable by vaccination.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EDiseases transmitted by mosquitoes.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EAcute respiratory infections.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EHaemorrhagic (bleeding) fevers.\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EZoonotic diseases (diseases spread by animals).\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003Cli\u003EOther diseases.\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ol\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBecause it is usually easier to remember drawings than names, we will use \u201cicons\u201d (graphic symbols) for each disease group. We will talk a little bit about each group and the diseases in it, how the diseases are transmitted, what symptoms they cause, and how to prevent and manage the epidemics for which they are responsible.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESome of the above diseases are also foodborne and waterborne diseases, or also transmitted mainly in health care settings (nosocomial infections), or during sexual activity, etc.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u201cZoonotic diseases\u201d are transmitted by animals or insects. Animals or insects that transmit diseases to people are called vectors. Vectors include mosquitoes, sand flies, triatomine bugs, blackflies, ticks, tsetse flies, mites, snails, fleas, chickens, monkeys, camels and fruit bats. The animals or insects in question are not necessarily sick; some are healthy when they transmit severe human diseases.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMany diseases fall into more than one group. For example, yellow fever has been placed in the group \u201cDiseases preventable by vaccination\u201d because the main prevention and control measure is vaccination; but it is also transmitted by a vector (mosquitoes) and could have been grouped under \u201cDiseases spread by mosquitoes\u201d or \u201cZoonotic diseases\u201d.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EYou do not need to remember by heart all of the information about these groups. We will talk about them again later on, and you will be given a toolkit with this training manual. The toolkit will help you to remember the diseases and also to prevent and manage the epidemics they cause.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003ENote: The content of the training manual on this website and in the PDF document is exactly the same.
