Answer 2

• Infectious diseases and transmissible diseases are illnesses caused by the infection, presence, and development of pathogenic (disease-causing) biologic agents in a human or other animal host. Infections can be mild or severe, with or without symptoms.
• Because certain infections may not result in sickness in the host, the terms infection and infectious disease are not interchangeable.
• Viruses, bacteria, fungus, protozoa, multicellular parasites, and abnormal proteins known as prions are examples of disease-causing biologic agents.

• Direct physical contact with an infectious person, consumption of contaminated foods or beverages, contact with contaminated body fluids, contact with contaminated inanimate objects, airborne (inhalation), or being bitten by an infected insect or tick are all possible ways for these biologic agents to be transmitted.
• Some disease agents may be passed from animals to people, and some of these pathogens can cause serious illness.
