Explanation:
communicable disease is a disease that spreads from one person or animal to another. Pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, and fungi cause these diseases.
communicable diseases also referred as “infectious” or “transmissible” diseases.
Pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protists, cause communicable diseases.
A person may develop a communicable disease after becoming infected by the pathogen. This may happen through:
- direct contact with a person carrying the pathogen
contact with contaminated fluids, such as blood, mucus, or saliva
- inhaling contaminated droplets from another person’s cough or sneeze
- receiving a bite from an animal or insect carrying the pathogen
- consuming contaminated water or foods
- physical contact with an infected person, such as through touch (staphylococcus), sexual intercourse (gonorrhea, HIV), fecal/oral transmission (hepatitis A), or droplets (influenza, TB)
