00:07 Right. What? Ok. Ok. Yeah. Right. All

00:48 . Could have been that. testing. Testing. That's the

01:10 Mhm. Mhm. Testing. Testing. Here we go.

01:18 folks, welcome. Hope you had somewhat relaxing holiday, Thanksgiving holiday.

01:28 So uh today we've got um a bit too much to squeeze in one

01:37 unless I talked a mile a Um So um not enough to fill

01:43 two complete classes. So we're gonna the difference and I got endpoint mine

01:48 in about 50 minutes or so. uh to, so we're going through

01:55 . We'll finish up uh If you your notes, I'm gonna go finish

01:59 diphtheria, right. We'll start respiratory diseases toward the end. I'll end

02:05 diphtheria and then we'll leave the rest Thursday. So um ok. Uh

02:12 only thing left uh there, there's , I think there's a smart work

02:17 on next Monday. Um maybe take 22 chapters, I forget.

02:24 uh then we have a unit quiz starting Friday through Monday. Um That's

02:30 be one of those more comprehensive So cover 15 stuff from 1518,

02:37 21. Through 26. Remember that's a selected diseases in those

02:42 So um so example for so I an email uh yesterday. So if

02:48 didn't read it, um so not bore you with all the details.

02:56 , Casa, uh I was, were gonna schedule through CASA. Um

03:03 but apparently so during finals period, gets super busy, right? Because

03:10 there is more than this class taking there. So, um, it's

03:15 more so when it's compressed into those or seven final days. So what

03:21 was we got kind of bumped, . And so the guy says,

03:25 , we can, um, you can have your exam on

03:29 I thought that will go over great everybody to have it on Sunday.

03:34 I said, I don't think that's work. So I was trying to

03:36 out what to do. So I , all right, let's do it

03:40 . Ok. So, uh very , right? It, it makes

03:44 easier for you. All right, you don't have to sign up for

03:46 exam. You don't have to come campus if you don't want to.

03:50 , uh, so what you're gonna just think of it as taking

03:53 I'm sure many of you are familiar the responders and all that stuff.

03:58 you're not, uh, just follow instructions that are in that email,

04:02 on the link and it'll take you to the page and say you likely

04:06 have to download the respond this browser . OK? Uh And monitor is

04:13 part of that. So again, follow the instructions that are there.

04:17 We'll, I'll open a uh basically an an ungraded practice quiz which will

04:23 just like silly questions like is the blue or stuff like that? The

04:26 purpose of it is to make sure um you run the process correctly,

04:33 ? That you can take a, a quiz on responders, everything

04:37 the camera works, et cetera. all good and, and that quiz

04:40 be up for a week and you have unlimited, you can do it

04:45 many times as you want. But the whole, the sole purpose

04:49 to a ease your mind and knowing hey, this, it works on

04:54 computer when the, when the test is coming up, then, you

04:59 , you're good to go, So what I don't know is in

05:04 as you're doing this practice and making everything is right. You know,

05:08 you do have technical issues, I'm the one to fix those.

05:12 and I it wasn't clear to me those when I was looking at the

05:15 uh the pages on how you do , uh who to go to

05:19 who do you seek if you if you have issues. So I

05:21 find that out and then relay that you ok. But hopefully you won't

05:26 any issues, but that's likely. the time to find those issues is

05:32 , right? So it'll open on that, that quiz will open.

05:37 , um, and you'll have, guess, said the, the rest

05:39 the week to, to, um, make sure your system is

05:44 , right? And if you have to be able to fix.

05:47 So, um, so all you , uh, so assuming you got

05:53 OK. So the basics are you need a computer, you need

05:57 stable internet connection and you need a webcam and that's it. You can

06:05 anywhere on planet earth and take the doesn't matter. OK. How am

06:09 gonna know? Right. Unless you your webcam out to the beach on

06:14 you're in Hawaii or something, So, um uh so those are

06:18 three things you need, right? so uh it's a webcam proctor

06:23 OK? It's a lockdown browser. uh just don't do any kind

06:30 even if you're being completely innocent, that may be perceived as being not

06:35 in front of the camera, don't it, right? Just take the

06:39 and you know, eyes, eyes the screen, that kind of thing

06:44 raise any kind of red flags, ? Because obviously the videos everything is

06:48 on the on the screen and um , and they can be reviewed and

06:55 just, you know, take the that he would have cost her and

06:58 issues. Ok. So, uh, like I said, I'll

07:02 communicating these things to you about this the next two weeks. Anyway.

07:07 , um, if you didn't catch today, go back and read the

07:10 and I'll be emailing you reminding you this stuff. Um, and,

07:15 so on. Ok. So I'm everybody's ok with taking this exam

07:20 Yeah. Ok. Uh, I usually tell if something, if I

07:25 something and it's not going very Of course, you'll get lots of

07:29 , right? I got zero emails this. So I figured good to

07:33 . Ok. So, um, , so, uh, oh,

07:40 there's, I don't really have any office hours during the next couple of

07:44 , but all you gotta do is send me an email like the day

07:47 or something. Hey, can we blah, blah, blah?

07:50 it shouldn't be an issue. Um, it's more, uh,

07:55 through Thursday, Friday is gonna be little less availability, but certainly Monday

07:59 Thursday. Ok. All right. , ok, so we are,

08:05 see where we're at here. So have, uh, so number

08:09 remember, you know, the, 1518 and 20 those three chapters are

08:14 part of this last exam. Uh, the, the 21 through

08:19 right? The diseases. So that's be selected, right? That's why

08:23 put the pages up here. Because obviously aren't covering each chapter in its

08:28 , right? So, um so keep that in mind, right?

08:33 , you know, have, have document, have the exam review,

08:37 , just to kind of keep you track if you, if the book

08:40 a part of your process. So to keep you on not going into

08:45 that we don't even talk about. . So uh we will today get

08:50 um uh let's see. Rabies. . And I think through here and

09:00 guy, OK, today then we'll this for Thursday and these two.

09:11 . Anyway, uh so we got the um so again, again,

09:17 like the, here's, here's the to know stuff, right? The

09:21 um set up in a table. like this is, is a

09:26 Again, these are just suggestions, ? So it kind of helps make

09:30 make this more manageable if you organize in, in some, in some

09:34 of fashion, whether it's this or other way you like. Uh but

09:37 know what to know for each of things. OK. So again,

09:41 remember to kind of keep track of and you know, honestly, a

09:45 of the 21 through 26 stuff is kind of, if you have it

09:48 up like this, it's kind of memorizing the stuff. So, um

09:55 , I mean, that's my suggestion . OK, so let's look at

10:01 question. OK. This is actually somewhat famous piece of art.

10:08 Um but he's obviously in some kind distress here. Mm. Ok.

10:39 . Ok. Um OK. Counting . Uh let's see. Yes,

11:08 actually is suffering. He looks like has a bad back for sure.

11:11 it is, it is Tetanus. . Uh I think this was a

11:16 he's a soldier, he was a in Napoleon's army. Now the movie

11:20 out now the Poleon, right? he was a soldier in the army

11:25 um battle wounds are a common way , to acquire tetanus. Um And

11:34 what it is characterized by is uh tetanus and bis are both affect muscles

11:39 different ways. And so the the , it's about these spasmodic contractions

11:45 And so it can actually lock up back as you see here. Uh

11:49 contractions can be so forceful that can break uh your back. Uh And

11:56 obviously, you can see his toes curled, fist and so uh jaw

12:01 , so characteristic symptoms of, of tetanus. Ok. Um So these

12:09 so tetanus and bo do botulism So both of these are due to

12:15 of the same group. It's right? We talked about these earlier

12:19 the context of endospore forms, Clostridium and bacillus are your endospore performers

12:25 very resistant uh uh dormant form they produce. Uh here you see the

12:33 they kind of have this club you see up on the top of

12:37 with the swollen, uh these types a um the swollen part here is

12:46 the um spore is at in those forming. So um so with

12:52 uh more a more common, more this occurred more so in the twe

12:59 part of the 20th century than, now, so much because it was

13:03 common to, especially in rural areas , to can and, and bottle

13:08 own foods. And so that came when uh that was done improperly.

13:13 . You can get autism can There was accounts of uh entire families

13:17 died because they consumed food from these canning. Um Nowadays, I think

13:24 the, I don't know, in there's probably maybe five cases of people

13:28 from botulism uh in the United So it's not a very common thing

13:33 days. But um but what it uh so both these organisms,

13:37 the, the tetanus and clostridium uh botulism, the clostridium, they're both

13:43 inhabitants, soil organisms. OK? so um with botulism, it can

13:49 typically from improper canning. So you a pressure cooker you typically use,

13:54 . Uh which is basically like an claim, right? So you put

13:57 um the material in the bottle and you or jar and you put in

14:02 pressure cooker. And so if it come up to temperature properly, um

14:07 will, it can cause the the , right? Because typically if it's

14:13 uh vegetables or fruits or things that canning or um it comes from the

14:17 , right? So that's where your sources are, right? And so

14:21 you don't properly um uh sterilize these bottles or cans, then those

14:29 in those spores can germinate inside there it will be an anaerobic environment.

14:35 ? And um that will cause them grow. So remember that this group

14:39 clostridium, are anaerobic. Ok. they'll grow, ok. And then

14:44 toxin. And so you can ingest and get the effects of botulism.

14:50 ? The uh you know, you may occasionally see um you

14:56 manufacturers that, you know, canned , you know, that's their,

15:00 their business. Uh They may see the can is bulging, ok?

15:05 that can be from growth of clostridium they produce gasses when they're growing and

15:10 can cause the bulging of a can something. It could be an

15:15 Hm. This isn't good. Let's this out of here. So,

15:18 so certainly if you see something like on a grocery store shelf and you

15:22 , don't, don't take, don't it home and eat it. Um

15:26 so the kind of paralysis this thing . Ok. So it has to

15:30 with your nerve muscle connections, So your, your muscles respond to

15:38 impulses right to the nerves that are with them right, uh motor

15:43 right? So the communication between the is through um neurotransmitters. OK.

15:52 the uh so here's a motor neuron is communicating with this muscle and uh

15:59 natural potential right, travels down the and at the end, the terminus

16:07 , the uh these little sacks contain . OK. So the one that's

16:13 be affected here by the toxin is . OK? And so when these

16:21 uh vesicles containing the acetylcholine are merged the cell surface and are released,

16:28 the nerve impulse that triggers that. . So nerve impulse triggers that release

16:33 chemical. And now the oyl choline to the muscle and then stimulates the

16:39 . And so then a contraction Ok. So with uh this particular

16:46 , OK. Uh the toxin you here will bind to the neuron,

16:53 axon, excuse me, the axon neuron and then enter the cell.

16:59 ? And then what it does, actually prevents the, these vesic vesicles

17:05 neuro, the, the um the PSEO it prevents it from being

17:11 . Ok. So this never gets here to communicate with the muscle,

17:15 ? So it's getting the actual but the muscle can't respond because the

17:21 that talks to it is not being . Ok? And that kind of

17:26 is what we call the flaccid Ok. The muscle would like to

17:31 but it can't because the signal that it do that isn't getting there.

17:37 . And so um it both with and with tetanus, that kind of

17:45 from the same thing. Uh but just in different ways.

17:49 um respiratory failure followed by heart Ok. So remember that the,

17:56 um muscle is the diaphragm, Sitting underneath your, your uh

18:03 right? Uh That diaphragm is attached them, it contracts and it expands

18:09 lungs, right? And that's how gets in negative pressure. Ok?

18:14 so um if that diaphragm, if wants to contract but can't,

18:20 then you don't have your re your is obviously impaired. Ok. So

18:26 on how much toxin you had, know, that can obviously lead to

18:31 uh distress, distress, breathing, to distress with your heart because you

18:36 your cardiovascular system, your respiratory system closely linked. Ok? So stressing

18:42 stresses the other. Ok. So typically die from respiratory failure and heart

18:48 , heart failure uh because those muscles in that wanna contract, but they

18:55 . Ok. And so with in kind of the same thing

19:01 we just for in a different OK? I I, and you

19:05 need to memorize this. I just threw it up here just to kind

19:08 refresh your memory on, on uh the uh mechanism of how you make

19:15 uh movements with your limbs, When your muscles, your muscles work

19:20 opposition to each other, right? here So it's your hamstring,

19:26 versus your quads, right? Top your leg versus back of your

19:31 Ok. So if you wanna bend , uh, bend at the

19:35 right, your, um, uh, has to relax and your

19:42 has to contract right? To be to pull that. Uh, like

19:46 one, we're going this way, . We're going that way. We

19:49 to, um, a contract, quad and relax the hamstring.

19:53 So in any case, it could bicep, tricep, right? You

19:57 this, you have to, you're your bicep, you need to relax

20:00 tricep to make that limb move OK. So, um antagonistic action

20:09 muscles. OK. So how do do that? Well, how does

20:11 body do that? Well, we saw, you know, a,

20:14 motor neuron um uh gets stimulated and that stimulates the muscle and the muscle

20:21 . OK. So that's fine for one muscle group. But you

20:25 at the same time, you need relax the other muscle group. You

20:29 want it to contract. OK. that's where inhibitory neurons come in.

20:36 ? And so uh we see So uh in an interneuron, for

20:41 , here, OK, we can uh one group muscle group and the

20:46 one contract. And so you're gonna two different um neurotransmitters, right?

20:54 for the contraction and the other one have uh what's called Gaba is very

20:59 . Again, I need to memorize stuff. But the gab A is

21:03 type that you often see in inhibitory uh actions. And so one inhibits

21:10 doesn't contract, the other one does and you get a smooth motion,

21:16 ? And so tetanus toxin interferes with inhibitory connections. OK? And so

21:24 and again, so with tetanus uh it's a soil organism,

21:29 You will contract tetanus. All her on a rusty nail. Gotta get

21:33 tetanus shot, right? Because you , te presumably the nails on the

21:36 and the dirt it got contaminated. endo spores on it. You puncture

21:42 skin. Now they get in there begin to grow um and produce

21:47 OK? The toxin. Um So the site of damage, so if

21:52 damage, uh where the um puncture has occurred, uh that tissue immediately

21:58 be maybe is, is dead uh is dying. And then that sets

22:03 an anaerobic micro environment that then the or organism can begin to grow and

22:08 toxin. OK. The toxin travels these inhibitory uh uh travel of neurons

22:16 then it affects the inhibitory neurons. the gab a the inhibitory uh neurotransmitters

22:24 that works in opposition to acetylcholine in , right? So again, it's

22:29 let's let this muscle contract and this relax. OK. And so uh

22:34 by by interfering with the inhibitory you get these spasmodic, not smooth

22:42 . OK? And so that's where can get. So with diaphragm,

22:47 , that uh helps with your, brings about your breathing, expands your

22:52 . Now, you have that spasmodic , it's not a smooth contraction.

22:56 again, stresses such as the uh you can't breathe, right.

23:01 your heart, death and soups. . So again, both bauta bots

23:07 kind of similar end result is kind a slightly different way to get

23:11 OK? Of course, the outcomes both are are not good,

23:14 OK. And so um not since these toxins are both. So

23:21 these are neurotoxins, right? They're um messaging between neurons and muscles,

23:27 ? So they're neurotoxins uh in that . And um they uh then so

23:35 both toxins are coming from the same , right? Clostridium, it's not

23:40 they're both neurotoxins. It's not surprising there is a pretty high degree of

23:46 between these two toxin types. And so uh both are the types

23:51 they have A, the A right? So the one, the

23:55 portion binds to the target cell and A portion has the active function.

24:01 . Um So uh let's see what think of. So to characterize these

24:09 tennis and bots um the reservoir right be soil, OK? Both those

24:17 the um transmission I would say um would be um food born,

24:24 Because it's through eating any of the that you would get that.

24:28 Um uh te tetanus is more or , I would say just that the

24:34 is through uh uh soil really Um Transmission through a to contaminated,

24:42 know, get a puncture wound. kind of thing is how it gets

24:45 . So, um I think any about tetanus, autism, OK.

24:52 or autism. Number of cases in year in the US are pretty

24:55 Tetanus is not that high either, we also have, we get vaccinated

25:01 it as well. So that contributes why there's not a lot of cases

25:04 it. Ok. Um, all , listeriosis. So this is,

25:13 , there's probably about, oh, a couple 1000 cases a year.

25:21 , the, the ones most like many of these diseases we talk

25:25 are elderly, those are compromised immune but also to be aware are,

25:31 pregnant mothers. Ok. So pregnant , the, um, not so

25:39 the mother being affected but the, newborn, right? The fetus.

25:44 . Um, so it is recommended pregnant, uh, females restrict their

25:52 of certain foods. Ok. uh, you know, um,

25:57 know, the pregnant female because she's a child, her physiology is different

26:02 then, from then somebody when she's pregnant and it affects your immune system

26:07 . Ok. And so the baby certainly not gonna be protected,

26:11 And so, uh, eating foods , uh, like you see

26:15 uh, processed foods like, salamis or deli meats, salamis,

26:21 , uh, smoked foods as Uh, hot dogs, uh,

26:26 , um, raw vegetables. These the kind of things that, that

26:30 can acquire Listeria from, uh, most of us that have healthy immune

26:35 , the worst effects we may may be a slight stomach upset,

26:41 a little bit of diarrhea. That's . Ok. As one who regularly

26:46 pay attention to expiration dates, I'm I've had listeria a few times.

26:51 ? But never mounted to anything, ? Very, very mild.

26:55 So, um the uh but you need to be aware if you

27:00 in that category of uh immunocompromised or pregnant. Ok. And so uh

27:10 , it can take kind of two , right? So it can be

27:14 a AG I tract mild G I condition that you deal with, but

27:20 could progress to getting into your blood then into your blood brain barrier and

27:27 . I think it's like the 4th or so. Um meaning cause

27:33 , you know, well, behind uh uh ST ST streptococcus, uh

27:40 it's like third or fourth on the . But um but again, pregnant

27:45 is, is another danger for the . Ok. And so this thing

27:50 a uh small uh small rods ram , um pretty widely distributed in both

27:58 sources in certain animals in soil. it's pretty widespread. In fact,

28:06 now the it has the ability to do that movement with those active

28:16 So uh outside the body is actually . It has a flagellum but inside

28:22 body when it affects you, it loses that for some reason,

28:25 it still is able to maintain And it's also a type that goes

28:30 of the cell. So that's they're , right? They um it's a

28:36 um intracellular pathogens, right? It gets inside the cell to hide from

28:42 immune system. OK. Um And can use that acting rocket right to

28:50 within the cell and into other Ok. Um It has various um

28:58 various factors, uh various enzymes to will, this will disrupt uh

29:06 phospho lipase, uh protease, those be a disruptive antibodies and things like

29:11 . So they have a pretty, wide array of uh virulence factors.

29:17 , uh so remember, you we've talked about a few pathogens uh

29:21 have this ability to be uh get cells, right? Invasions. Uh

29:28 because, not because they, it's a virus that they need to

29:32 Not, not for that reason, just to hide from the immune system

29:37 potentially penetrate deeper into the body. . So um the uh the main

29:47 one of the features. So I to pick diseases that have like a

29:51 feature, not everyone, but there's of the problem. This is one

29:55 them low camp growth growth at low is one of the main things with

30:01 . Uh it's why, you they can, um, they can

30:05 uh survive in the fridge on these type foods like your salamis and hot

30:10 and whatnot. We just mentioned is they can live and, and grow

30:15 four degrees. Ok. They can remain viable, not growing but alive

30:22 minus 20. Ok. So, we can see that. Um,

30:29 I just, yeah, and so is at minus 20 but uh the

30:34 line, ok, right there and four degrees here. And you

30:41 see uh that's where we start. so we're going here, that's almost

30:48 1234 logs. Granted, it's not in 24 hours. It's over a

30:58 frame of 3 to 4 weeks. ? But still that's, that is

31:03 growth. Ok? So imagine that on your salami there. Ok.

31:09 , and you know, I suspect you know, the kind of meats

31:13 see in your fridge, if they've in a while, they have kind

31:15 the sliminess to it. That's probably . Right? Thee may be in

31:21 among them. Ok. So uh that minus 20. So no wonder

31:26 was maybe 78 years ago. And think it happened again recently, Blue

31:32 Ice Cream up in Brenham had uh sty outbreak, right? And so

31:38 if you're a ice cream manufacturer, do yourself a Cold Temple and here

31:42 something you gotta be aware of. . And the outbreak several years

31:47 I think it was traced to this that held the ice cream that was

31:51 into the buckets. Uh, but , the nozzle where they dispensed was

31:55 was contaminated with the area. So right into the bucket of ice

32:00 So, and, and as you see it can survive and grow at

32:04 temperatures. So, um, and course, the the the fatalities that

32:09 were what you'd expect. It was . I think it was a couple

32:13 older uh folks that compromised immune but nonetheless, this was the,

32:18 source. OK. Um So with , the ster infection, like I

32:25 , for most of us, uh it is, it is a um

32:29 a food born illness, right? get it from eating contaminated food,

32:34 ? And so it will uh typically for right here. OK. That's

32:42 , you know, you'll take care it at that point. You may

32:44 mild upset, maybe a little bit and you're done. OK? But

32:49 can uh progress beyond this, go your lymph nodes. OK. Um

32:57 so remember this is an invasive type it could be in your cells,

33:00 kind of hit your ride. Uh could so remember that your gut,

33:05 ? Your intestines, there's lots of vessels there, right? Lots of

33:09 all across your intestines because that's how get food to your tissues,

33:14 Absorb it from your intestines, carry in the blood for your tissues,

33:19 ? So, um so it could its way into. Uh and so

33:24 vessels are also all over the place there as well. So it can

33:27 your ride into these different uh ways and get into the blood.

33:33 And then if you're pregnant, uh you're pregnant, uh it could,

33:39 can cross the placenta. So the is not the one that's been in

33:43 , it's the baby, the baby no protection. Ok? And so

33:47 , you know, it can lead still stillborn. Um And also

33:51 the effects aren't noticeable right away. could be several, several days before

33:57 , you, you notice that maybe is not right. So, uh

34:01 that's why particularly if you're pregnant, something to be aware of,

34:04 Because you, you may be your baby may be infected, you

34:07 know it right away. Ok? you don't show any signs or

34:10 Ok. So um uh I I have to look on if

34:14 you know, if anybody, if are uh pregnant, you go to

34:20 that, that would give you go cdc.org and give you kind of information

34:25 . There's like I see a chart there what foods to like not uh

34:28 avoid while you're pregnant. Um and give you some other guidelines.

34:34 um uh so it could also gets the blood, uh it could progress

34:40 meningitis, right, get into the brain across that blood brain barrier.

34:46 . So really the the thing about is this ability to grow and live

34:50 cold temps, ok. Very characteristic this type. Um And so the

34:58 versus invasive. So the noninvasive type be one where basically the the disease

35:04 right here, you take care of , no problem. But if it

35:07 an invasive type, it can progress one of these more serious outcomes.

35:13 . Um Any questions on this Ok. That uh, ok.

35:21 let's look at this question. Don't deceived by this picture, right?

35:25 humans most frequently contract rabies from the of a. Let's let me qualify

35:33 saying most humans in the US United . Ok. Hm. You open

35:41 pool. There you go. Ok. I couldn't think of 1/4

36:06 that had a T I've been good , bat cat. I can't think

36:10 another one. Nat that would be nat for books. Yeah.

36:37 Ok. Go. Ok. So got bat and dog. It's actually

36:47 . I think it is dogs. , but here in the US,

36:51 bats actually, um because most, know, we in the US,

37:00 vaccinate our dogs, right? um you have the occasional case obviously

37:06 um, but worldwide I it it dogs, but when you just consider

37:11 US, it's actually bats oddly Ok. So if you go down

37:16 , uh, what is it, WW Bridge on Allen Parkway?

37:21 Do this bad, start flying? , ok. So rabies.

37:30 So this is one of the, , few, actually, I can't

37:36 of another one infectious diseases. where, uh, you can,

37:43 don't guess shingles may fall in that , but it's, um, it's

37:46 very slow progressing. Once you you get, once you get bit

37:52 from that point, it's a very progressing disease. So slow, you

37:57 actually get a vaccine uh after you've bit and the vaccine can be effective

38:03 , in curing you. OK. The uh so with rabies, it's

38:12 obviously it's a virus, right? a virus actually on the smaller size

38:17 . Um bullet shaped like you see a RN A virus. And um

38:23 this is showing a dog obviously. a a at the initial point of

38:27 bite where it gets into you, typically it gets into a muscle,

38:34 ? It kind of just sits there a while. Usually there's not a

38:37 of virus um dose, not, not a big dose of virus that

38:42 into you initially. OK. And because of that, and because it

38:48 really travel into your blood or lymph , right? You don't produce a

38:52 immune response to it. So your doesn't really see a AAA lot of

38:57 . And it's not in the places you, you can get a,

39:00 large immune response. Ok. So virus kind just sits there,

39:05 then slowly begins to move. And gets into your peripheral nerves.

39:13 . And, um, so, that process until it gets into your

39:19 can be a month, um, weeks, right? And so almost

39:24 months maybe. Ok. And that's you can get treatment. Obviously,

39:29 when it's completely curable. OK? The treatment is a combination of getting

39:35 vaccine right. Once you've been you get the shots of the

39:38 uh you can be given AAA dose actual antibodies to the virus. So

39:46 that's the uh uh artificially acquired passive , right? You're being given already

39:55 antibodies to the to the virus so you, you'd also get a shot

39:58 that too. And again, within 3060 day time frame, you're

40:05 You get, you get the treatment good. OK? But if you

40:10 , if you wait, OK. now it goes into those peripheral nerves

40:14 the CNS, you're pretty much OK? The chances I, I

40:20 where there was one case of a actually survived that uh when they got

40:25 be that bad. OK? But few and far between, right?

40:30 it gets, if it progresses, don't get treatment, your fatality rate

40:35 basically 100%. OK. So, but again, you got this really

40:40 window once you get a bit to get treatment. So, um

40:45 so as, as it, you , if you don't get treatment,

40:49 it, it moves up to the nervous system in the spinal cord and

40:52 produces, it produces um not, meningitis, but what they call

40:58 which is slightly different. It's more , it's not an inflammation of the

41:04 covering the brain. That's what meningitis . This is more the actual brain

41:10 itself becomes infected and inflamed. You can actually look at neurons of

41:16 infected animal, for example, and see the virus in those neurons.

41:21 ? That's not what meningitis does, ? Um You can get this weird

41:27 person that's, that's been bit and , and the symptoms that show up

41:32 this weird thing here called hydrophobia, ? It's like the fear of

41:38 Ok. So it's like a, affecting you, you know,

41:43 obviously. Uh and so muscle spasms mouth. So you all heard of

41:46 foaming of the mouth in a rabid , right? That's kind of where

41:49 is coming from. Um But that is how the virus um and the

41:57 uh helps perpetuate itself. So you , if, if it's, if

42:01 relies on an infected animal biting, ? Relies on biting, then that

42:08 needs to be in the mouth. so that's kind of the way to

42:13 for the virus to do that, ? So that that improves. So

42:17 , this is what the virus wants animal to do. Ok. And

42:21 if it's gonna do that, then better be, have, have your

42:25 in that saliva in the mouth where biting occurs. Ok. And that's

42:29 of what this behavior, uh, in on, on the part of

42:33 virus. Ok. It's kind of , really strange. So,

42:38 so two kinds of rabies when you at animals that are affected with

42:43 um you know, think of a versus a cat. So a dog

42:47 get the furious rabies, so very , very aggressive, right? A

42:53 dog in a cage will be very and very uh angry, aggressive.

42:59 cat in a cage with rabies complete . It kind of just like zombie

43:04 almost. Ok. Obviously, if get, if you get, if

43:07 mess with it and put your hands front of it, then yeah,

43:09 wanna bite at you. But you , if you look at the two

43:13 contrast, very different, right? that's what they call um paralytic rabies

43:17 of this like uh almost zombie like . Um not, not being really

43:23 , ok? Unless provoked. Um So this is, and so

43:29 shows, you know, in a animal you can um yeah, you

43:33 test through a to be through a engine kind of test you have antibodies

43:39 the to the rabies virus and you the uh sample from the animal.

43:44 if you see a clumping reaction, can also look at the tissues.

43:48 so negri bodies. Um so talking about features that relate to these

43:55 , negri bodies rabies, right? goes together. OK. And so

44:00 , being a virus, you have cycle, right? You infect copy

44:06 mcdonald proteins assemble et cetera, And so in the course of

44:10 you can see parts of the virus that's what the negri bodies represent or

44:16 of the virus as it's kind of its thing, replicating, assembling that

44:20 of thing. And so you see of course, in the neurons in

44:23 affected neurons. Um Now, as mentioned, if it progresses to,

44:29 know, you, there's really not chance of survival once you get,

44:32 it gets to this, to this , um uh obviously severe neurological symptoms

44:39 whatnot. Uh So, uh the post exposure treatment, that's what's

44:44 here is that because of the slow of this disease and has to migrate

44:51 your nerves, that initial 3060 day , completely treatable. And this is

44:58 of the things you do. Um The vaccine plus this shot of

45:05 rabies antibodies. Um Now, some so of course, uh humans aren't

45:13 getting a rabies vaccine is not part what you do. OK? But

45:18 people that do get this would be like animal control. Uh people would

45:23 this, um, uh, a veterinarian might like to get, get

45:28 , get this, get this Uh, but most of the rest

45:31 us don't. Ok. Um, , so that's kind of a profession

45:37 kind of thing in terms of you the vaccine or not. Ok.

45:40 you're, uh, your chances of a rabbit dog, of course,

45:44 much greater if you're an animal control or event. Ok. Um

45:51 any questions about rabies, anybody ever bit by a rabbit dog?

45:57 no, I wasn't fun. I'm , you know, um or other

46:02 animal. Um OK. Play We don't have a lot here other

46:10 , and I think that's it. OK. So uh plague and obviously

46:21 uh population worldwide back in the 13 , 14 hundreds, 15 hundreds,

46:28 of artwork related to that sort of little uh big bumps, you

46:34 OK. Male, female. These uh they called boo boo bos

46:42 OK. So representing um a large nodes, OK. Characteristic of bubonic

46:49 . There's like three different versions of . OK. And so it is

46:53 um oh, here's a uh 14th Hazmat suit. OK. So this

47:00 a guy that uh would tend to off uh the, the,

47:05 the organism or the disease rather wearing scary costume, I assume.

47:10 Um OK. So with uh so , OK, is a condition,

47:18 types of infectious agents can produce if get into the blood. Ok?

47:22 course, when it gets in the , then you get lots of your

47:24 system cells can be affected, causing as we've seen before. So plague

47:30 your CIA pestis. It's kind of the same family tree with like your

47:35 coli and your salmonella and those Ok. Um gram negative and it

47:42 this uh it has the plague is course through a, a flea uh

47:50 . Ok. So flea is typically a rodent of rat, some type

47:54 other squirrels. Um uh prairie So certainly out west um prairie dog

48:03 , uh plague is endemic out Ok. Um The uh um the

48:12 so uh flea jumps from animal. of course, a flea uh needs

48:18 , eats blood, right? Blood . So, uh flea jumps and

48:24 uh lands on a human, human become susceptible. Ok? Um Now

48:30 , so when it gets, uh bite gets into the blood, it'll

48:35 to proliferate. Ok, then get your lymph lymphatic system. Ok.

48:41 it's there. Where will you get enlargement of your uh lymphatic uh lymph

48:47 ? And that's what produces those boo . Ok. Uh As we see

48:52 . Ok. And so that's a one, but they can be all

48:57 the body as it, as it , as the disease spreads in your

49:02 like we saw in the piece of earlier. Um But then it can

49:09 enter the bloodstream because this, this c is also one of these like

49:13 uh listeria gets inside cells. It's of those facultative intracellular types, the

49:21 from the immune system. So it does it for that purpose and

49:24 also does it to travel through the . Ok. So if it gets

49:28 the bloodstream, that's what we call plague. Ok. So then it

49:32 spread and in the lungs is probably most dangerous form. So, bubonic

49:42 , mortality rate is somewhere in the of 25% or so, which means

49:49 chance of, of dying. When it gets to septicemic, fiftyish

49:57 to mnemonic, almost 100% chance you're . OK? And so it's also

50:03 most uh contagious form, right? what, which is typical respiratory respiratory

50:09 are gonna be much more spread, , easily, more contagious. And

50:13 it gets to pneumonic plague, then , then it can quickly disseminate,

50:19 an epidemic. Ok. So um uh it's one of the things about

50:27 Sinia, OK. Lots of different factors. Uh One of the things

50:32 it relies on is so of for your sun to keep proliferating,

50:40 it wants, it would want the , it's in to continually bite

50:48 right? Or keep biting the host on, right? And it does

50:54 actually by uh forming a, so in the gut of the Lee and

50:59 can form a biofilm. And so BioFoam actually kind of interferes with the

51:04 digestive system. So it never really full. Ok. And so that's

51:10 keeps the flea biting and keeps the to keep infecting. Ok. So

51:16 kind of very, very sneaky that . Um, and so the,

51:22 , so in the, in the , so areas like, um,

51:26 , uh, West Texas, California out in kind of the deserty

51:32 and whatnot. Uh where, where lots of prairie dogs and squirrels.

51:37 It's endemic out there. So apparently dogs are very susceptible to um to

51:42 plague organism. And occasionally you'll see , of course, if humans put

51:49 in these areas, uh whether, know, could be uh hiking or

51:55 , what have you uh or agricultural , right, in these areas.

52:00 then you, now you get the of these animals that are infected and

52:04 jump on you. Ok. So do see cases of plague um each

52:10 , uh particularly, you know, in these uh endemic areas. And

52:15 you should just, uh you don't to memorize this chart, but just

52:18 you kind of an an urban This is obviously where, you

52:22 the middle ages is the kind of we're talking about uh rodents. Um

52:28 , you know, bad hygienic practices then, right? Um Led to

52:32 of rats, you know, trash in the streets and didn't have,

52:37 know, indoor plumbing back then. . So, it also attracted vermin

52:42 of course, then the fleas on jump. So humans get into contact

52:46 that. Uh, you know, progression to the plague, uh,

52:51 , to, um, uh, , pneumonic plague, of course,

52:54 , pneumonic plague uh, will spread humans very quickly in that, in

52:59 stage. Uh And so I, you see something that's called a sylvatic

53:05 , that basically means with, with humans are a part of it,

53:09 ? It's kind of cycling between different . Could be squirrel and prairie

53:13 What have you? But these are there's uh the cycle that doesn't involve

53:18 human, just the animals, different . OK. This is what you

53:22 where it's endemic, you know, in the western parts of the

53:25 West Texas, etcetera. OK. OK. So let's look at this

53:31 here. So we're gonna transition to so we here transition to respiratory

53:48 OK. So we'll do a couple end calls a day here. So

53:56 , we'll end on diphtheria. So talked about all these, some of

54:04 from last time, most of them today. OK. So you

54:45 these, you will see this on unit quiz coming up. These are

54:48 kind of questions, you know, what to know about these things,

54:51 ? These different organisms that we're talking , you know, the gram

54:57 right? Morphology. Um different Niche disease has right, effective toxins

55:06 certain ones. Um That's why I that table is kind of the way

55:12 go in terms of organizing this All right. Let's count down

55:19 Yeah. Ok. It is not matched. So, if you

55:41 um, c you're correct. So, um, so it doesn't

55:50 the ability to, to uh um because it does contract, it

55:56 contract spasmodically. It's the botulism toxin creates that effect. Not the tetanus

56:01 . OK. Everything else here is . Um Let's look here,

56:16 All right. So most respiratory infections gastrointestinal infections are blank in nature.

56:33 OK. Bye. OK. Calm . All right. It's, let's

57:01 what we got here. Yeah, mostly viral in nature. So,

57:08 the the viral form is typically the the lesser serious form when it gets

57:17 the bacterial versions of G I tract , respiratory tract infections, those tend

57:22 be the worst. Ok. so we'll transition to um respiratory tract

57:32 and we do it in 22 the lower and the upper respiratory,

57:36 sorry, upper and lower respiratory tract . Ok. So, um so

57:42 looked at streptococcus in the context of uh infections. Uh Here is of

57:49 , strep throat. It is you know, upper respiratory tract.

57:53 that the fancy name for this is PHN Pharyngitis. It's kind of the

57:58 name for this con this condition um pyogenes. So obviously, it would

58:03 probably all I've had this at one or another very bright red inflamed throat

58:09 of that scarlet fever is actually looks scary than what it actually is.

58:14 terms of it doesn't, it rarely any fatalities. Uh personally contracts it

58:20 Children get over it in a week 10 days. Um, at

58:26 they may have a slight fever but have a very bright red. They

58:31 like a strawberry, basically, very red color. This toxin is

58:37 it acts on capillaries uh under the and then those, those vessels

58:43 And so then of course, that about this very bright red color uh

58:48 the person, but again, not that's gonna be uh very serious,

58:53 it looks kind of, it looks um uh alarming. Uh but certainly

58:59 though is serious. Ok? Not much as long as you get

59:04 OK. That's that. Um so D tap, right? We actually

59:11 about the three diseases that is in vaccine, right? So diphtheria,

59:17 D tap the D is diphtheria, P is the pertussis. That's the

59:22 cough. We'll talk about that next and then the, the T is

59:26 tetanus, which we already talked Ok. So diphtheria, that's one

59:31 those types that has that non uniform , right? So streptococcus, you

59:39 , they're all gonna be circles and , right? Staff circles in

59:43 right? Uh E coli short right? This guy, this group

59:49 andum are not uniform, they'll have shapes, branching forms, et

59:55 That's what we, that's, that's we call pleomorphic. OK.

59:59 um they do stay gram positive and still call them a rod. Although

60:05 know that there's with the name por , it's kind of variations on

60:10 OK. And so um so diphtheria the thirties was a massive killer of

60:18 . Um alarmingly. So and so , the, it, it's one

60:24 the diseases that's used as an example the success of vaccination because introducing the

60:32 um in the late thirties, dramatically the number of cases uh of Children

60:39 this. And so, and still this day, um the we do

60:45 pockets here and there around the us vaccination has not been kept up and

60:51 see upticks in cases of diphtheria. you know, if you keep on

60:56 schedule, like you should, then won't see that. OK, because

61:01 still quite effective against the Durian. And so here it just shows you

61:06 of the weird morphologies that this group with these kind of club shapes,

61:12 these kinds of called palisade arrangements of cells, uh swollen ends like

61:19 So very characteristic, the um the OK. So characteristic features,

61:25 So this is one of them is pseudo memory. OK. So you

61:32 that you think diphtheria, like you bodies, you go rabies pseudo

61:40 um diphtheria grows at four degrees, , refrigeration temperature, this steria,

61:46 . So we make those are the . Ok. Um So with

61:50 so toxin producer, OK. And toxin. Um so again, it

61:57 kind of in the throat, it as like a mild throat infection.

62:01 but then the the toxin begins to up, ok. And it's killing

62:06 cells and what your body's response is . Um But then the combination of

62:16 and killing the cells, um you this formation, uh you get this

62:22 that forms and builds up. That's what they call the pseudo

62:27 It's, it's a product of diphtheria the action of the toxin, killing

62:33 cells and then creating this layer of cells and fluid and whatnot. They

62:40 a pseudo membrane and it can um big enough where it can block the

62:46 block the airway, so it can your breathing. Um um And so

62:52 , it then travel the toxin, travels basically from this lesion to into

62:57 blood, into the rest of your . It can affect various vital

63:02 Ok? And that's, that's where lethal part of this comes in is

63:07 it can um it's a toxin that protein synthesis. So if that's gonna

63:13 and the cell dies, ok. so if you're affecting vital organs in

63:17 , in that case, that's when , it becomes fatal. And so

63:21 , in, uh, but this is really a disease of,

63:24 was primarily in Children until vaccination came . Um, adults still get

63:30 Uh, obviously in areas where you have vaccination at all. Uh,

63:35 you can, it can be, , um, treated with antibiotics.

63:41 , um, it's a, it's I said, in this,

63:45 you know, the member case we in the States very minimal except we

63:50 seen areas of the country where vaccination not kept up. And,

63:54 both diphtheria and whooping cough have increased those, in those areas.

64:00 um, anyway, bottom line Ok. Um, any questions?

64:08 . Ok, so that was my point today. So we'll finish

64:13 uh, Thursday and we'll see you cut it off.
