| Sumario: | As part of their academic work, medical students must complete 60 hours of participation in a bonding program. The linking program "Healthy Water" brings ceramic filters to communities that lack drinking water, which in Ecuador is 25% of households. Students in groups of four visit four homes, deliver the filter, explain its use, operation and care. Then explain what the usual infectious agents of untreated water are: protozoan parasites, bacteria and viruses. For this, models of eukaryotic cell, bacterium, bacterial virus (phage T4) and eukaryotic virus (H1N3 influenza virus) will be provided. With these models, the students will deal with topics such as the differences in scale between the pathogens, the different infectious capacity and the mode of action of the antibiotics. |
