Viruses causing LRIs such as tracheobronchitis, bronchiolitis, and pneumonia are influenza virus, RSV, parainfluenza virus, and adenovirus. Young children, the elderly, and patients with compromised cardiac, pulmonary, or immune systems are at greatest risk for serious disease. In children, 15% to 25% of pneumonias are caused by RSV, 15% by parainfluenza virus, and 7% to 9% by adenovirus.  Vaccine blocks, but you still will display a infection.  Usually no medicine.  Interferon will help body help itself.

Antibiotics are not effective against viruses, and the Centers for Disease Control and other health organizations now recommend against using antibiotics unless there is clear evidence of a bacterial infection.  Humans make proteins called ANTIBODIES to respond to ALL FOREiGN SUBSTANCES MHC=major histocompatibility complex Hello my name is "Jeff Bradley"

Most viral infections tend to resolve on their own without treatment so any treatment generally is aimed at providing relief from symptoms like pain, fever and cough.

PBS "Sticky" Sickle Cells really means....?

LINK


Sickle cell anemia is a genetic disease that affects hemoglobin, the oxygen transport molecule in the blood. The disease gets its name from to the shape of the red blood cells under certain conditions. Some red blood cells become sickle-shaped and these elongated cells get stuck in small blood vessels so that parts of the body don't get the oxygen they need. Sickle cell anemia is caused by a single code letter change in the DNA. This, in turn, alters one of the amino acids in the hemoglobin protein. Valine sits in the position where glutamic acid should be. The valine makes the hemoglobin molecules stick together, forming long fibers that distort the shape of the red blood cells, and this brings on an attack.

EPI and PBS Friday Work

Epidemiology
Please complete Concept Map for mastery on Activity 1.0

Public health workers use four general strategies to manage an epidemic: quarantine, immunization, education about disease prevention, and early, aggressive treatment of ill people. Describe the disease and how it is transmitted.

1. find out when and where it was first observed.
2. summarize how public health workers managed the outbreak.
3. describe how the disease affected people and communities
4. list preventive measures people can follow to avoid infection.

Please complete conclusions questions on Act 1.0
Please begin Act 1.1

Principles of Biomedical Science
Please turn in Act 3.1.2 Diaries and conclusion questions.
Please start Act 3.2.1 and work on it as a class.  Please use Chrome to........
.View the animations of protein synthesis listed below and complete any associated tasks. Take notes in your laboratory journal. Make sure to include a detailed description of the entire process including the steps for transcription and translation.

PBS SCD Diaries

Act 3.1.2
Sickle cell anemia can lead to a host of complications
Living With and Managing SCD
Read through Anna's Diaries.  Then..................
You will then be assigned a fictitious patient who is undergoing a treatment for sickle cell disease. You will write diary entries for your assigned patient detailing how they are feeling and a description of the treatment they are receiving, including the risks and benefits. You will also include a narrative of all of the biomedical professions the patient encounters during their treatment journey.
1 assigned 4 year old
2 assigned 7 year old
3 assigned 15 year old.  Good luck
