midterm review
03/04/2006
Yesterday, I stayed at home, studying for my midterm on Tuesday
covering Bacterial Pathogenesis. The bacteria that we have learned
since the first midterm are Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae and S. pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus (a nasty little bug that you want to avoid in food), Vibrio cholera, Bordetella pertussis and B. bronchiseptica, Yersiniae pestis, Y. enterocolitica, and Y. pseudotuberculosis. That’s barely covering it without referring to Escherichia coli, and all the forms of toxic shocks these pathogens so lovingly induce in us.
And
today, I stayed home as well. But I went to a midterm review to get
14-page paper covering everything that was taught in five weeks.
