tyroid

          Typhoid fever is an acute illness associated with fever that is most often caused by the Salmonella typhi bacteria.

It can also be caused by Salmonella paratyphi, a related bacterium that usually leads to a less severe illness.

The bacteria are deposited in water or food by a human carrier and are then spread to other people in the area.
