Description
Tiny microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, have a huge effect on health; many diseases are caused by such microorganisms, and microbiologists study them to discover treatments and cures for such diseases. Medical microbiology has led to the development of preventative medicine as well, creating vaccines, for example, which have virtually eradicated deadly diseases such as smallpox or polio in many parts of the world.
