Meningitics can be caused by infection with a bacteria, virus, or fungus, and it can be deadly if it is not treated promptly. When not fatal, it may result in brain damage, hearing loss, or learning disabilities. Meningitis, Second Edition examines the forms of the disease, as well as its symptoms, diagnosis, and treatments.</p><p>Deadly diseases affect everyone. Although not all cases are fatal, each disease causes a degree of harm and discomfort to those whom it afflicts and sometimes can have long-lasting consequences. Each book in the series Deadly Diseases and Epidemics takes the reader through all aspects of a disease-from its history and causes or method of infection to its treatment and prevention. The books provide a foundation for understanding the basics of microbiology, immounology, and epidemiology.</p>
