What Illnesses or Diseases Are Caused by Cocci Bacteria? Cocci bacteria are spherical in shape and include Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus pneumoniae, according to Todar's Online Textbook of Bacteriology. Gram-negative cocci bacteria include Neisseria gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis. Staphylococcus aureus is most commonly found in the nasal membranes, skin and GI tract of humans, according to Todar's Online Textbook of Bacteriology. It is the most likely to cause disease and is considered a pathogen.

- Most fungi are harmless, but some types can make you sick. Coccidioidomycosis, also called valley fever, is an illness caused by a fungus that is common in some parts of the United States. Here’s what you need to know about valley fever.

bacteria Most are harmless; only a small proportion cause disease. Bacteria may be cocci which are spherical and usually about 1000th of a millimetre (1) in diameter. These include bunched staphylococci and single-strand grouped streptococci.

A List of Bad Bacteria Certain types of Gram-positive cocci, or spherical bacteria, are the leading pathogens among humans, including: -- Staphylococcus aureus -- Streptococcus pneumoniae -- Streptococcus pyogenes, also known as group A streptococcus. These bacteria can cause a range of conditions and infections. Common examples include: -- pneumonia -- ear infections -- strep throat -- superficial and deep skin infections -- bloodstream infections, known as sepsis -- toxic shock syndrome

Coccidia Coccidia infection can cause diarrhea, and can be fatal, especially in puppies. However, many dogs show no symptoms. Dogs get coccidia from swallowing infected soil or substances containing dog feces. Removing dog feces from your yard and the dog's environment is the best protection. Your veterinarian can test, and treat if necessary, your dog for coccidia. Puppies should be tested regularly.

Microbes and disease Microbes and disease. A few harmful microbes, for example less than 1 % of bacteria, can invade our body (the host) and make us ill. Microbes cause infectious diseases such as flu and measles.There is also strong evidence that microbes may contribute to many non–infectious chronic diseases such as some forms of cancer and coronary heart disease. Different diseases are caused by different types of micro-organisms.icrobes cause infectious diseases such as flu and measles.

8 Signs and Symptoms of Protein Deficiency The most severe form of protein deficiency is known as kwashiorkor. It most often occurs in children in developing countries where famine and imbalanced diets are common. Protein deficiency can affect almost all aspects of body function. As a result, it is associated with many symptoms. Some of these symptoms may start to occur even when protein deficiency is marginal. They are listed below, along with some typical symptoms of kwashiorkor.

- The Gram-positive cocci are the leading pathogens of humans. It is estimated that they produce at least a third of all the bacterial infections of humans, including strep throat, pneumonia, otitis media, meningitis, food poisoning, various skin diseases and severe types of septic shock.ifferent strains of S. aureus differ in the range of diseases they can cause, including boils and pimples, wound infections, pneumonia, osteomyelitis, septicemia, food intoxication, and toxic shock syndrome. S. aureus is the leading cause of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections by Gram-positive bacteria.

- The disease is contagious. It can be caused by poor nutrition and any number of viruses such as poliomyelitis and measles, fungi including yeast, or bacteria like meningococcus, pneumococcus, streptococcus, and tuberculosis. It may result from severe infection of the nose and throat or spread through the bloodstream.

- The pyogenic cocci are spherical bacteria that cause various suppurative (pus-producing) infections in animals. Included are the Gram-positive cocci Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus pneumoniae, and the Gram-negative cocci, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis.

Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever) For those with weakened immune systems and for people of African or Filipino ancestry (who, for some unknown reason, get more severe forms of the disease), coccidioidomycosis can be much more serious, spreading from the lungs to other parts of the body and even to the brain.

Meningococcal ACWY Vaccines (MenACWY and MPSV4) Meningococcal disease is a serious illness caused by a type of bacteria called Neisseria meningitidis. It can lead to meningitis (infection of the lining of the brain and spinal cord) and infections of the blood. Meningococcal disease often occurs without warning – even among people who are otherwise healthy.

- This disease has several commonly used names (valley fever, San Joaquin Valley fever, California valley fever, acute valley fever, and desert fever). Other names get confused with valley fever (for example, rift or African valley fever, which is caused by a virus).Coccidioidomycosis was first noted in the 1890s in Argentina; tissue biopsies of people with the disease showed pathogens that resembled coccidia (protozoa).ost microbiologists and infectious disease physicians prefer the name coccidioidomycosis because the word describes the disease as a specific fungal disease, and this term may replace valley fever in the future.

Coccidiosis Puppies are frequently infected with coccidia from the feces of their mother, and are more likely to develop coccidiosis due to their undeveloped immune systems. Stress can trigger symptoms in susceptible animals.Symptoms in young dogs include diarrhea with mucus and blood, poor appetite, vomiting, and dehydration.uppies are frequently infected with coccidia from the feces of their mother, and are more likely to develop coccidiosis due to their undeveloped immune systems.

- Causes of Coccidia in Dogs. Though some dogs may not show any ill signs from the coccidiosis, oocysts are still being shed in the feces, which will continue the infectious cycle when passed to canine buddies. Dogs can ingest the coccidia from contaminated soil, and from hunting and eating infected rodents.

- Coccidiosis in Cats. Coccidiosis is a parasitic type of infection, caused by the Coccidia parasite. It most commonly causes watery, mucus based diarrhea in animals.

Disease precautions for hunters Lyme disease is an illness caused by a bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, which is a spirochete (a bacterium that has a worm-like, spiral-shaped form). Deer ticks are the primary carriers of the bacteria.s the infection develops, symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle and joint pain. The disease can progress to cause chronic joint problems as well as heart and neurological problems. Lyme disease is not contagious from one person to another.

Treating Coccidia in Dogs with Albon (Sulfadimethoxine) Coccidia affect the intestines so a dog may have watery diarrhea with traces of blood. In more severe cases, a dog's diarrhea will contain blood and mucous, and the dog will strain to relieve himself. Dehydration often accompanies diarrhea along with weight loss and a loss of appetite.
