Explanation
Solution
Typhoid is caused by Salmonella typhi. The organisms of the disease are present in the stool. They may be present in urine. They can, therefore, be carried by water and contaminated food. Their spread through water can give rise to severe epidemics. The temperature goes on rising during the first week and then gradually comes down. Rest, care about food and proper nursing are absolutely essential for some days, otherwise the disease may relapse. Polio is caused by Enterovirus. TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Tetanus is caused by Clostridium tetani.
