Diseases come and diseases go…rather like fashions, but with diseases it’s the general conditions prevailing at the time that denotes what gets a foothold and what doesn’t. Many diseases are opportunists, they will surface at a time the conditions are right for them to flourish and most often this is at a time when humans really could do with concentrating on other stuff. Here are ten diseases that will make their presence felt after a major, long term,disaster be it war, societal collapse or in some cases even an economic downturn.

1.Typhus:Typhus is spread by the body louse, it’s all around us, prevalent amongst the homeless and those living in unsanitary overcrowded conditions. the only reason we are not all infected with it is our ability to launder our clothes and shoer/bathe regularly. History teaches us that typhus loves downturns and has been shown to surge during and after every major crisis be it war or a stock market crash.

2.Typhoid:Not to confused with typhus typhoid is caused by the bacteria salmonella typhi and is spread by contaminated food and water. It spreads quickly in overcrowded and/or unsanitary conditions.

3.Pellagra: Pellagra is caused by a lack of vitamin B3 and was endemic just a few decades ago, Those eating diets with low levels of B3 are at risk of suffering from pellagra. Its a debilitating disease that causes a slow and painful death.

4. Hantavirus: Hantavirus is caused by ingestion of dried mouse droppings that are commonly found in sheds, cabins etc. It’s a serious disease that will kill if not treated promptly. In a situation where the mouse population can’t be controlled and contact with droppings is more frequent cases of Hantavirus will rise.

5. Bubonic Plague: Plague has two forms, bubonic and pneumonic. Bubonic plague is often fatal if left untreated, pneumonic plague is almost always fatal if left untreated. Both are spread by the bite of a rat flea. As with hantavirus if rodents can’t be kept under control the disease will spread. It causes agonizing swellings, often in the groin or armpits that are full of pus and black in colour, hence being called the black death. Read the full article on All Self Sustained

      Actually, Typhus is caused by rickettsia bacteria, and other than bad back pain, migraine headaches, severe muscle pain, body rashes and photophobia, manifests almost identical to a bad case of the flu. There are several forms of Typhus, but the most common one is transmitted by lice (while there is no proof that bedbugs carry any known diseases, they interact with humans on a very similar basis, so it is still not determined if bedbugs have the same propensity to carry typhus as lice do – it is possible).

      Typhoid means ‘like Typhus’ and while is caused by a variant of Salmonella, is normally contacted by ingesting raw human fecal matter in water or food, normally the result of poor sanitation systems (aka 3rd world environments).

      Don’t forget all those diseases that we currently vaccinate against and wouldn’t be doing IF there was collapse. People have forgotten just how much damage (and even death) measles, mumps, polio etc caused. Also don’t forget amoebic dysentery and loads of other diseases caused by parasitic infections. And last, but not least, the whole plethora of diseases caused by malnutrition such as scurvy, rickets etc.
