5) Elephantiasis is also known as lymphatic filariasis. It's caused by parasitic worms, and can spread from person to person through mosquitoes. Elephantiasis causes swelling of the scrotum, legs, or breasts. Elephantiasis is considered a neglected tropical disease (NTD)

9 ) a vector is an organism that does not cause disease itself but which spreads infection by conveying pathogens from one host to another.
Species of mosquito, for example, serve as vectors for the deadly disease Malaria.
11) Infectious diseases are transmitted from person-to-person through the transfer of a pathogen such as bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. A non-infectious disease cannot be transmitted through a pathogen and is caused by a variety of other circumstantial factors.
12) Smallpox is an infectious disease of the past that health care professionals eliminated worldwide by vaccination. The variola virus causes the disease, which only spreads from person to person. Affected people became very ill with a high fever and a characteristic rash. Up to one-third of people with smallpox died.

Immunity is the ability of the body to defend itself from 'foreign bodies'. This means rejecting infections, clearing up dust which gets in the lungs, and killing cancer cells. Vaccination builds on the natural immune system to make a person resist certain diseases.
Immunity is of two types. Innate immunity protects the host against infection, but has no 'memory', and so gives no long-term immunity.
The second type is adaptive immunity, which does have a kind of 'memory'. It does give long-term protection against specific pathogens.
14) Vaccination: Injection of a killed microbe in order to stimulate the immune system against the microbe, thereby preventing disease. Vaccinations, or immunizations, work by stimulating the immune system, the natural disease-fighting system of the body. The healthy immune system is able to recognize invading bacteria and viruses and produce substances (antibodies) to destroy or disable them. Immunizations prepare the immune system to ward off a disease. To immunize against viral diseases, the virus used in the vaccine has been weakened or killed .
15) Smoking and Tobacco.
Diet and Physical Activity.
Sun and Other Types of Radiation.
Viruses and Other Infections
16 ) do not stay too close to anybody as the infectious agents may spread
-immunization is also important to treat the diseases and prevent it in the future
-public hygiene is very important
-proper health facilities should be available
-water should be checked for infectious agents.
