Here's a list, just for your viewing pleasure:

Amebiasis
Cholera
Dengue
Ebola
Giardiasis
Guinea-Worm
Hepatitis (all three of 'em!)
HIV/AIDS
Hookworm
Hypertension
Jaundice
Leishmaniasis
Lymphatic Filariasis
Malaria
Onchocerciasis
Polio
Schistosomiasis
Sickle Cell
Syphilis
Trypanosomiasis
Tuberculosis
Typhoid
Yellow Fever
it's a classic.
