This does not have something to do with anything but bacteria. Bacteria are the main reason why a lot of people suffer from the fatal claws of infectious diseases. How will you be able to counteract these diseases if you yourself does not know who causes these diseases? How will you be able to defeat your enemy if you don’t know who your enemy is?
In 2003 worldwide mortality rate all infectious diseases accounted for the death of 16.4 million people. And today it is estimated that these infectious diseases kills 57 million people every year and 18 million of it were children under 5 years of age or 33 percentage of the total. Does it sound alarming?
The commercialization of Infectious Diseases Kits is quite a good move in the field of infectiology. Before an infectious disease is to be treated, its classification should be first identified, here comes the importance of these kits. It’s either by means of serum, whole blood, saliva or buffer extraction where a test can be conducted using Infectious diseases kits, then figure out what kind of bacteria has penetrated your immune system.
Can the test be done at home? This question needs another question and that is, do you have the knowledge on how to do the test similar to those of the experts?
