Abstract
Typhoid fever is an acute febrile illness caused by an infection caused by the bacterium Salmonella enterica, especially the Salmonella typhi variant. However, other types can also cause this disease, such as Salmonella paratyphi A, Salmonella typhi B, and Salmonella paratyphi C. Typhus is an acute infectious disease of the small intestine accompanied by fever for at least a week without bladder disturbances, indigestion and loss of consciousness. The spread of this disease is almost always through food and drink contaminated by sick people. Beating typhoid requires a deeper understanding of health. Beating typhoid requires a deeper understanding of health.
