These deaths resulted from exposure to organism that produced diseases such as Hepatitis, Acquired immune deficiency syndrome, Human papilloma virus, Ebola fever, Lassa fever, Hanta virus, Zika virus, Influenza and the most recently occurring one, the so-called latest, viral diseases of the millennium: Severe acute respiratory syndrome (Sars-Cov2), Middle east respiratory syndrome (Mers) and Novel Coronavirus (nCov-19). These diseases have for centuries ranked with war and famine as major threats and challenges to public health movement as well as progress and survival of human species.
