TITLE : SUMMER VACATION OF MY CHILDHOOD(PART-26)
SUB-TITLE : BACTERIA
In summer, when rainy days, It also brings many more bacteria which harms human body much more, while some bacteria can cause diseases, many are beneficial and play crucial roles in the ecosystem. Bacteria also have practical applications in industries such as medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology. Bacteria reproduce mainly through binary fission, a process where a single bacterium divides into two identical daughter cells. They are one of the most abundant forms of life on Earth and can be found in diverse environments, including soil, water, air, and the bodies of plants and animals. Some bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics, leading to concerns about antibiotic-resistant strains, often referred to as superbugs, bacteria come in various shapes and sizes, ranging from spherical or also called cocci and rod-shaped also called bacilli to spiral or spirilla forms. Vibrio species, such as Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus, can cause illnesses like cholera and seafood-related gastroenteritis when consumed through contaminated water or undercooked seafood, Vibrio bacteria are commonly found in warm coastal waters, particularly during the summer. Legionella can multiply in warm water environments, such as cooling towers, and decorative fountains, which may be more commonly used during the summer months, this is responsible for causing Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia. E. coli (ETEC), can cause diarrheal illnesses often associated with contaminated food and water. Salmonella bacteria can cause foodborne illnesses, it can be occur in various foods, including raw or undercooked meats, eggs, and dairy products. Shigellosis outbreaks can occur during the summer months, particularly in areas with poor sanitation or crowded swimming pools. Mycobacterium avium can cause respiratory infections in humans, particularly individuals with compromised immune systems, it is a bacterium commonly found in water sources, including natural water bodies and plumbing systems, bacterial populations and their associated risks can vary depending on the specific location, climate, and local environmental conditions. So, stay hygiene, safe food handling practices, and take pure water to drink regardless in that season. During rainy days improper food handling and storage practices, coupled with increased bacterial growth in moist environments, can lead to the proliferation of Clostridium perfringens and an increased risk of food borne illness.
During rainy days, leading to the contamination of water sources and higher chances of exposure to Leptospira. During summer rainy days, there may be certain changes in the environment that can influence bacterial populations.
