What is Diphtheria: Causes, Symptoms, and Prevention about?

Diphtheria is an infectious disease caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, characterized by a gray pseudomembrane in the throat, respiratory distress, and potential complications like myocarditis. It spreads through respiratory droplets and close contact, with outbreaks often occurring suddenly in clustered cases, particularly affecting vulnerable populations. Prevention includes vaccination, good hygiene practices, and epidemiological surveillance to monitor and control the disease.
