Dead Birds
Over the past few years, many dead birds have been identified as having West Nile virus. This eMedTV Web page provides information about the handling, disposal, and consumption of birds that may have the West Nile virus.
Ebola Virus
The Ebola virus is the cause of Ebola hemorrhagic fever (also known as Ebola). As this eMedTV page explains, this virus was first recognized in Africa, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This page offers an overview of this virus.
Flu Virus
The flu virus is not only highly contagious; it's also highly changeable. As this eMedTV segment points out, this helps it to spread quickly from person to person. This article explains the history of this virus, how it spreads, and more.
Giardia Lamblia
Giardia, found in the feces of infected humans or animals, causes a diarrheal illness known as giardiasis. This eMedTV Web page describes where the Giardia parasite lives and explains how the parasite is transmitted.
