Typhoid+Fever9


 * MICKEY BELLACE

Summary:** The bacterial disease I did is called Typhoid Fever. Some of the things that people should learn from my project is how you get this disease, how to prevent it, what some symptoms are, and how it is treated. My comic life is about a patient wakes up in the hospital and asks a bunch of questions to his doctor about his disease and how he got it. It should answer all your questions about Typhoid Fever.
