Communicable Diseases are illnesses which are caused by pathogens or microorganisms, e.g virus and bacteria, that are transmitted from one person or animal to another in different ways. It can spread through contact of body fluids or blood, sexual contact, contaminated food and water, or through air.
With the advancement of medical science, different ways of controlling communicable diseases have emerged throughout the centuries and have been proven to lessen the mortality rate as time passed.
One is the development of Immunization. Immunization; to make one's body immune to a certain disease so it will be easier for the body to combat with the pathogens in contact with it. Until now, production of Immunization is still being updated depending upon the diseases that are currently affecting the majority. The development of immunization has given medical science, then and now, a very big impact in controlling diseases. How does it work? Immunization boosts the body's natural immunity whenever microorganisms enter the body. The body identifies these microorganisms as foreign elements, thus releasing certain kinds of cells to help fight off the infection.

Write a dialogue in which you use effective communication skills to explain to the teen the importance of knowing first aid. Be
Anestetic [448]
First aid is care given to someone before a paramedic arrives so for example..  If you and your friend are out on the trails on atvs and your friend wrecks his/her dirt bike and you are miles from the nearest help what would you do? without first aid your friend could die he/ she has a large deep gash in their thigh. It is bleeding bad and applying pressure isn't helping stop it. You remember something from first aid class that may help but your friend could lose their leg and is very scared. so you would try to calm him/her down reassure them and,then you apply a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.                             now you take your friend to the nearest help.   You just saved your friends life but, if you didn't know first aid he/she could've died by the time a paramedic made it to where you were.  That is why is important to know.                      that is what we were taught in my class it worked we all passed and knew how to apply first aid.            hope this helped. :)
