To complete this bonus activity, you will select one bacterial, one fungal, one protozoa, one parasitic worm and one viral pathogen from the lists below.\u00a0 You will then use reliable resources such as your textbook, CDC, WHO, scientific journals, etc. to describe the structure, virulence factors, the epidemiology, diseases caused, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of the pathogen.\u00a0 You will cite your resources per pathogen.\u00a0 Please use the bulleted list as your template to organize your research (Unit 4 notes can be used as an example template). you should thoroughly describe each section.\u00a0 By the end of this activity, you will have given the characteristics of five different pathogens.\u00a0
