Infectious Diseases

If in the West there is less mortality for infections, in developing countries infectious diseases continue to represent one of the main causes of death that “travels” in water, air, body fluids. There are so many infectious and contagious pathologies affecting the so-called “South of the World” and some of them, from HIV to Tuberculosis, pneumonia and infectious diarrhea, are counted by WHO among the top ten causes of death in the world with apocalyptic percentages. Knowledge of these pathologies along with organic intervention programs is a feasible challenge.
Docemus take up this conscious challenge that the “cultural” instrument represents the first step to rise the long stairway between “the South” and the “North” of the World: from knowledge of tuberculosis, HIV infection, malaria, innumerable parasites and infections typical in developing countries it is possible to achieve the appropriate diagnostic and care tools.
