Infect with what a sickness?
Answer:
Carbon dioxide is a gas which is released in the atmosphere as greenhouse gas, burning of fossil fuel, released in respiration process. Rise in the levels of carbon dioxide and other gases has resulted in increase in global temperatures. Increase in carbon dioxide and temperatures are responsible for weather fluctuations and global warming.
Weather fluctuation means untolerated heat and lack of precipitation or rain. Weather fluctuations will affect seasons. Seasons are necessary for maintaining the life cycle of organisms. Inappropriate seasons due to climatic change will affect the life of living organisms.
Global warming is an issue which is mainly due to release of hot heat trapping gases from green house and other sources, increasing the atmospheric temperature. This will result in melting of ice from glaciers in world. The inhabiting animals living in the glaciers will suffer a lot from this as they cannot tolerate warm climatic conditions.

A baby's immune system is not fully developed until he/she is about six months-old. In the meantime, pregnant mothers pass immunoglobulin antibodies from their bloodstream, through the placenta, and to the fetus. These antibodies are an essential part of the fetus's immune system. They identify and bind to harmful substances, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that enter the body. This triggers other immune cells to destroy the foreign substance.

Cornelius Agrippa (1486-1535) was a German mystic who practiced a "science" that combined alchemy, magic, mysticism, and astrology. Two of his books are Three Books of Occult Philosophy and On Calling Spirits. Through the writing of Agrippa, Frankenstein becomes very interested in alchemy, which is a pseudoscience whose main object is to find a way of turning base metals into gold. You could say that Frankenstein adapted the thinking of the alchemists and instead of transforming other metals into gold attempted to transform a corpse into a living being.
An interesting story about Agrippa concerns sightings of him after his death:
There were rumors that Agrippa had summoned demons on his death bed, and that a black dog roamed the countryside as his familiar. The black dog appears in tales as Faustus, Mephistopheles, and even as a grim in the Harry Potter series.
