Google it and you'll find all sorts of stuff. I like the stuff through emedicine.com, CDC.gov and NIH.gov

I'm having a hard time believing there's nothing in your schools library regarding either of these diseases.

these diseases are distinctive to countries with tropical climates. you can find out information about them on the who (world health organization) website as they track the incidence of these diseases and have public information about them.

  • http://www.who.int/en/ - click the link "health topics" at the left side of the home page. you will be taken to a list of topics where you will find links to "dengue" and "tuberculosis".
  • you can also find information about tuberculosis on the medline plus website (http://www.medlineplus.gov/)
