Diphtheria is a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening bacterial disease caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. There are two types of diphtheria: respiratory and cutaneous. Respiratory diphtheria involves the nose, throat and tonsils, and cutaneous diphtheria involves the skin.
Diphtheria is a serious bacterial disease that causes severe inflammation of the nose, throat and windpipe (trachea). Diphtheria is extremely rare in developed nations including Australia because of the widespread use of the diphtheria vaccine.
