Scarlet fever
Scarlet fever is an infectious disease. We can often meet this disease with children and only sometimes in grown-ups.
This disease passes from one person to another through the nose and mouth. The beginning of the disease is quick. The patient has a sore throat, fever, headache, and he often vomits. The face is flushed and the skin feels hot and dry. The temperature rises quickly on the first day and remains high for a few days. The rash appears on the second day. After the temperature falls, the skin begins to peel. The nurse must isolate the child and put him in bed. When the temperature is high the nurse gives him fluid diet and when the temperature falls she gives him nourishing food.

Pneumonia is an acute inflammation of the lungs. It may be caused by bacteria or viruses. It may follow a cold and bronchitis, or it may come on suddenly. It may also be a complication of measles or whooping cough (). The child looks ill, has fever, cough, and very rapid breathing. He may also complain of pain in the chest. A doctor should be consulted, and depending on the severity of disease the child may be treated at home or admitted to a hospital. If his breathing is very rapid, he may need oxygen. Doctors treat most pneumonias with antibiotics. Pneumonia can be dangerous in very young children, especially if it is due to an organism called staphylococcus. Viral pneumonia cures gradually. The child should stay in bed, have plenty of water and a highly nourishing diet.

Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease. The causative agent is the tubercle bacillus discovered by professor Koch in 1882. Its manifestations are usually chronic, but may be acute. It most frequently affects the lungs.
The onset of the disease is usually insidious. The individual has a slight cough, scanty or no expectoration, he complains of a sense of lassitude and fatigue.Exertion induces shortness of breath. The body weight diminishes, the colour of the skin fades, the digestion is deranged.
T.B. clinics carry out anti-tuberculosis measures such as prophylactic vaccination. Every person over 12 years of age has his chest examined for T. B. once every year. This means that medical workers check up millions of people for tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis patients receive all kinds of modern treatment. If necessary the patients are given artificial pneumothorax or undergo various lung operations. Rest is the most important part of the regime. Sanatorium treatment is also helpful, especially for children suffering from tuberculosis.
