Explanation / Answer

Tetanus

Clostridium tetani

puncture wound with a contaminated object

diarrhoea, fever, and headache

Bacteria produce toxin that affect brain and nervous system

Botulinum

Clostridium botulinum.

Either food borne or by infected wound

Food borne botulism: nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea

Wound borne: double or blurred vision, facial weakness

botulism ultimately lead to paralysis

Leprsoy

Mycobacterium leprae

mucus of an infected person

Weakness in muscle, skin lesion

it can cause severe disfigurement and significant disability.

Endocarditis

Staphylococcus aureus

Inflammation of heart lining

Aching joints and muscles, fatigue

Fatal disese

Pericarditis

Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Pneumococcus.

inflammation of the pericardium in heart

Aching joints and muscles, fatigue

People with weak immune system are prone to disease

Anthrax

Bacillus anthracis

By spores

mild fever, fatigue and muscle aches,

Spores spread very fast

gangrene

C. perfringens

spreads rapidly as the gases produced by bacteria expand

Fingers, toes, and limbs are most often affected, but gangrene can also occur inside the body

Diabetes, smoking increase the chance

Plague

Yersinia pestis

spread by rats

fever, chill, body ache

Runny nose, apnea
