This book examines communication and swallowing disorders in the context of infectious diseases.The COVID-19 pandemic brought infectious disease to prominence in speech-language pathology. But the SARS-CoV-2 virus is only the latest pathogen in a long list of viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi that can compromise communication and swallowing in children and adults. This volume examines several infectious diseases that are known to disrupt speech, language, voice, hearing, and swallowing. These diseases include HIV; herpes simplex virus; cytomegalovirus; Zika virus; human papilloma virus; COVID-19; streptococcus; candidiasis; syphilis; and tuberculosis. Each chapter examines a different infectious disease and discusses its epidemiology, onset, clinical course and, where relevant, neurological sequelae. The impact of infectious diseases on speech, voice, hearing, language, and swallowing is the focus of each chapter. Chapters also address assessment and treatment considerations in this diverse clinical population.This book is suitable reading for students, clinicians and researchers in speech-language pathology, audiology, psychology, education, paediatric medicine, neurology, and ENT medicine.
