Filariasis is a common parasitic infection caused by the nematode Wucheria Bancofti and its larvae. Transmitted by some species of Culex mosquitos into the human blood, the parasites cause gross enlargement of their lower extremities and other parts of the body, associated with fever and skin lesions, gradually leading to elephantiasis.
Influenza, generally referred to as Flu, is an infectious respiratory disease. It is caused by certain strains of the influenza virus and is characterized by fever, headache, muscular pain, and weakness.
