Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the infectious period and mode of transmission of scarlet fever, a disease characterized by throat and nasal irritation, and a telltale rash. Despite extensive investigation, the exact organism responsible for scarlet fever remains unknown, and a latent period precedes the onset of symptoms. The book draws parallels between scarlet fever and diphtheria, suggesting a focus on local throat infection rather than a generalized skin infection, as previously believed. The author emphasizes that the infectious period is highest during the acute phase of the disease and declines rapidly thereafter, although it may persist for months in some cases. The secretions from the throat and nose are identified as the primary source of infection, and complications such as persistent ear infections and nasal discharge can prolong the infectious period. The book challenges the long-held belief that desquamated skin is a significant source of infection, citing evidence that shows the disease primarily spreads through direct contact with an infected person or their secretions. While acknowledging the occasional role of milk in spreading the disease, the author downplays its overall impact on the epidemiology of scarlet fever. This examination of scarlet fever's infectiousness and transmission provides valuable insights for healthcare professionals and individuals seeking a thorough understanding of the disease. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331188711_0
