The purpose of our study is to focus on the causes of infectious diseases and on the reactions of the host to the pathogens. Although the advent od antibiotics and vaccines has certainly taken the dread out of many infectious diseases, the treat of infection is still a fact of life. New pathogens are constantly being discovered, strains of old ones have developed resistance to antibiotics, making therapy more and more difficult, while incurable diseases like AIDS, rabies etc. are still with us. Infectious diseases have been known for thousands of years, although accurate information on their etiology has only been available for about a century. We focussed on the broad knowledge of the etiologic organisms causing disease and the pathogenetic mechanisms leading to clinically manifest infections into its users. This knowledge is needed for every individual and a prerequisite for the diagnosis, therapy and prevention of infectious diseases.
