<h2 align="center">Typhoid Fever</h2>
<p>Typhoid fever is a bacterial illness caused by the bacterium <i>Salmonella 
typhi</i>, which lives only in humans. The disease is transmitted from human to 
human via the fecal-oral route. Most reported cases of typhoid fever are 
acquired while traveling internationally. Symptoms of typhoid fever may include 
fever, stomach pain, headache, constipation or diarrhea, and rose-colored spots 
on the trunk. <br>
In 2005, two cases of typhoid fever were reported in Indiana.
<a target="_blank" href="TyphoidFig1.htm">Figure 1</a> shows the number of 
reported typhoid fever cases (11) for the five-year period 2001-2005. </p>
