mucus and cilia that protects the respiratory system

Pain, fever, hard to swallow; red throat due to lysing of epithelium, puss on tonsels; caused by group A strep which also causes impetigo and necrotizing facitiis

Responsible for late sequelae immune mimicry; also a C3b protease

antibodies are made against M protein; they erode heart valves and allow surface for biofilm attachment; recruits NK cells and complement and nutrophils

Bacteria that live in your mouth but can get into the blood stream; of you have a rhematic heart it can destroy the heart valve

when viridans streptococcus invades the heart valve

caused by corynebacterium diptherae; produces AB toxin at low fe conditions; A stops protein synthesis

dead cells and bacteria that block the airway in diptheria; it can lead to heart failure and death; spread by respiratory droplets

antitoxin vaccine that injects antibodies into you

hemophils influenzae and strep pnemonia cause problems to ears, eyes, nose, and throat

inflammation of membrane over the eye; puss and pink eye

inflammation of membrane over the eye causing redness

middle ear infections that causes puss and inflammation in the esacian tubes which can cause the ear drum to rupture

nasal infections causing headache, swelling, and puss in nasal secretions

secretion of fluid into lungs can be because of bacteria, virus, or dust; strep pneumoniae

found in sputum in lungs and turns it pink

against polysaccharide capsul which means it is T independent and useful for 6 months

causes the common cold; naked ssRNA spread by respiratory droplets; acid sensitive; binds to epithelial cell receptors

binds to capsid and inhibits receptor binding and uncoating; virus cant bind to receptor so uptake is prevented

naked ds DNA virus; causes cold and fever; pus can be present in the throat; spread in fecal matter and respiratory droplets
