Diphtheria is a serious infection caused by strains of bacteria called Corynebacterium diphtheriae that make toxin (poison). It can lead to difficulty breathing, heart failure, paralysis, and even death. CDC recommends vaccines for infants, children, teens, and adults to prevent diphtheria.

 

Monkeypox, polio, marburg, and now diptheria all making a comeback this year :deadbanana4: And COVID hasn't disappeared yet. :deadbanana4:

"Human-to-human transmission of diphtheria typically occurs through the air when an infected individual coughs or sneezes. Breathing in particles released from the infected individual leads to infection."

 

Be safe y'all.
