Answer 2

Hey there, here is your answer !

Germs can spread through:

• the air as small droplets (droplet spread) or tiny aerosol particles (airborne spread)
• contact with faeces and then with the mouth.
• contact with the skin or mucus membranes (the thin moist lining of many parts of the body such as the nose, mouth, throat and genitals) (contact spread)
• blood or other body fluids (for example, urine, saliva, breast milk, semen and vaginal secretions).

Germs can spread:

• directly from person to person or
• indirectly from an infected person to the environment (for example toys, door handles, bench tops, bedding and toilets) and then to another person who comes in contact with the contaminated environmental source.

Germs can enter the body through the:

• mouth
• respiratory tract
• eyes
• genitals
• broken skin
