THEURGICAL THEORY OF DISEASE

The disease is attributed to the wrath of divine spirits for the punishment of individual sins; supernatural inflictions of disease

New cards

MIASMATIC THEORY OF DISEASE

Taught that all disease was dues to the emanations from the earth, the influence of the stars, the moon, the winds, the waters, and the seasons

55
New cards

MIASMATIC THEORY OF DISEASE

There is relationship of disease with different waters, changes in temperature, moisture and the direction of wind

56

KOCH'S POSTULATE

provides a framework for the study of etiology of any infectious disease

63
New cards

KOCH'S POSTULATE

The pathogen must be present in evert case of the disease

64
