  2. Who we are Presenting to Age: 6th Grade Students Sex: Equal boys and girls Socioeconomic status: Primarily white middle class with other students from mixed backgrounds

  3. Objectives • Define infectious disease • How are infectious diseases spread? • How does your body fight disease? • Immunization • Common infectious diseases • Common sense

  4. You will be able to… • Define the term infectious disease • List 3 common modes of disease transmission • Recognize situations in which disease transmission is likely to occur

  5. You will be able to… • Name 1 way to help keep your immune system response high • List 2 differences between active and passive immunization • List 2 differences between nonspecific and specific resistance.

  6. Why we are here Infectious disease is something that everyone comes in contact with. We need to know how to protect ourselves and those around us!

  7. What is an infectious disease? An infectious disease is a disease caused by organisms that enter and multiply within the human body

  16. Your Body How does your body fight off infectious disease? Your Immune System!

  17. Immune Response • Nonspecific Resistance • External-skin & mucous membranes • Internal-inflammation, interferon, natural killer cells,

  18. Immune Response • Specific Resistance • Lymphocytes • Memory Cells • Effector Cells • B-Cells • Antibodies

  19. Immune Response • Specific Resistance • Cell Immunity • T-Cells • Helper T-Cell Activation • Cytotoxic T-Cell Activation

  20. Taking Care of Your Immune System • Good Nutrition • Wash food • Refrigerate foods that spoil • Take Vitamins • Eat healthy • Immunization

  21. Immunization • What is Immunization? • Help for the body’s defense system • There are 2 types • Passive • Active

  22. Passive Immunization • Immediate protection • Short lived • Blood with antibodies taken from host

  23. Active Immunization • Known as vaccination • Causes antibodies but not disease • Two main types • Live-virus • Killed-virus

  24. Live-Virus Vaccines • Contain living viruses • Genetically weakened • Weakened through animal filtering

  25. Killed-Virus Vaccines • Contained killed viruses • Less powerful • Booster shots • Typhoid fever, Cholera, Rabies

  26. Immunization Importance • State by state law • Needed for work and school • Diseases still there

  27. Common Infectious Diseases • The common cold • Influenza • Strep throat • Mononucleosis • Can you list more?

  28. Symptoms of the Common Cold • The Common Cold • Mucous buildup making it hard to breathe • Swelling of sinuses • Sneezing • Sore throat • Coughing • Headache

  29. Symptoms of Influenza • (Flu) • Respiratory Tract Infection • Chills • Fever • Headache & muscle ache • Weakness • Dry throat • Fever (100-104 degrees F)
