Not a pretty topic for a blog eh!
but important to know for our day to day life
The fact as it was: when we did our medical school, we were taught that the infections causing lung infection called pneumonia is caused by a bacteria called pneumococcus.
The fact as it is: but now a days, we are facing infections of lung caused by so called gram negative organisms!
the question: but how does such an organism/bacteria which is usually present in faeces find its way to our lungs?
the answer: bacteria reach our lungs obviously by air
they need little aeroplanes to travel in the air
These are called Bacteria carrying particles
The dust in the air offers nice vehicles for their travel
But if the faeces are not disposed appropriately, then there is source and the dust in the air act as little aeroplanes for them to reach us.
what should we do: Be ware of your environment
