| Clarke's disease [1] |
Debilitating illness suffered by Humans in the mid 22nd century. Clarke's disease is extremely painful, and usually terminal. There was no cure, though genetic engineering could probably have eliminated the disease. [1] |
| Common Cold [2] |
Earth disease which was notoriously difficult to cure. In 2151 Lieutenant Reed suffered from a cold, though he thought it remarkable that he could have contracted the disease in the closed environment of a starship and claimed that any species that had the ability to travel faster than the speed of light should surely be able to cure the common cold. [3] More than a century later the common cold remained uncured amongst Humans in 2269. [4] It was finally cured at some point prior to 2364. [5] |
| Cove palm parasite poisoning [6] |
Illness contracted from contact with Cove palm plants. Cove palm parasite poisoning is extremely dangerous and can be fatal unless treated. Even the medical facilities of a Galaxy class starship are insufficient to treat the poison and a Starbase-level facility is usually needed. Willie Potts suffered a case of Cove palm parasite poisoning in 2367. [6] |
| Cygnokemia [7] |
A rare and terminal disease that affects humans. It was incurable by the Federation in 2258. [7] |
| Cytotoxic Shock [8] |
Prostration of bodily function, caused by high levels of cytotoxins. It can be treated by inaprovaline. [8] |
